Best Answer

An animal gets energy from the food it eats, especially carbohydrates and proteins. This food is broken down in the stomach and the nutrients are absorbed through the stomach wall into the blood stream and blood cells.

Where do many animal cells get their energy the need?

Just like any other living organism (including human), the energy that animal's cells get come from the foods they eat.


Do animal cells have mitochondria and chloroplast?

They need energy to live.Mitochondria give this energy.


Why do animal cells have chloroplast and mitochondria?

They need energy to live.Mitochondria give this energy.


Can animal cells create food?

no, they get the energy they need from the mitochondria.


What are the three thing plant cells and animal cells need?

Water, Oxygen and organic food for energy


Do muscle cells have more or less mitochondria than other animal cells?

Muscle cells have more mitochondria than other animal cells because the need more energy to preform their job, and mitochondria produce the energy for the cell.


Why does a plant cell have a cell wall and chlorophyll and an animal cell doesn't?

Its because the plant needs to be stable because it would be really floppy, and the animal cell does not because it can move around the animal and it does not need to be stablised. Animal cells do not have chlorophyll because they don't need it. Plant cells need them because they take in sunlight and turn it into a sugar that is used for food for energy. Animal cells do not get their energy from the sun directly, they get it from oxygen. Animal cells do not photosythesise, which is what chlorophyll is for.


Difference between plan and animal cells?

The fundamental difference between plant cells and animal cells is that plant cells have much larger vacuoles, possess chloroplasts, and have a cell wall as opposed to a cell membrane. Animal cells do not need these things for the simple fact that they can't convert solar energy into chemical energy and don't need that much water to survive.


Why do plant cell have chloroplast and animals do not?

Plants cells have chloroplasts because they need it for a process called photosynthesis. But both plant and animal cells have mitochondria. Animal cells can use the mitochondria to get energy that why they need chloroplast.


What types of cell does cellular respiration occur?

All cells need energy, so all cells undergo cellular respiration.


Why does animal cell have mitochondira but no chloroplasts?

Animal cells need energy,so they have mitochondria.They are not photosynthetic,so they don't have chloroplast.


What type of cell would you find lots of mitochondria?

Muscle cells often contain many mitochondria because muscle cells often require a lot of energy, and since mitochondria create ATP which is the form of energy used by our bodies, it is essential to have many of them in cells that constantly require more energy than, as an example, skin cells.
