What part of all cells makes energy?

Are we talking about eukaryotic or prokaryotic cells?

What is main the function of chloroplast in prokaryotic cell?

By definition, prokaryotic cells cannot have chloroplasts. This is either a trick question or the answer should replace prokaryotic with eukaryotic. In eukaryotic cells, the chloroplast serves as an energy translator. It takes energy from photons and translates it into usable energy for the cell via carbon compounds. These carbon compounds are eventually combined to form sugars.
