How many chloroplast can be found in photosynthetic cells?
thousands
What is the photosynthesis cell called?
the main photosynthetic cells in a leaf are the palisade cells, they contain many chloroplasts which actually carry out photosynthesis.
What contains chlorophyll and is a green pigment that traps energy from sunlight and gives plants their green color?
Chlorophyll is contained in chloroplasts, which are specialized organelles found in plant cells. This green pigment is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy.
What is a cell containing many chloroplasts?
Chloroplasts present in plant cells.They are abundant in cells exposed to sunlight.
What is the scientific name of the Palisades cell?
The scientific name of the Palisade cell is "Parenchyma cell," which refers to the photosynthetic cells found in the mesophyll layer of plant leaves. These cells are characterized by their tall, closely packed arrangement and contain many chloroplasts for photosynthesis.
What are the plants main photosynthetic organs?
The main photosynthetic organs in plants are the leaves. They contain chloroplasts that are responsible for capturing light energy and converting it into sugars through the process of photosynthesis. Leaves also have stomata, which regulate the exchange of gases involved in photosynthesis, such as carbon dioxide and oxygen.
In what type of cells do choloroplast take place?
Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells. They contain the green pigment called chlorophyll, which absorbs sunlight. The chloroplasts use the sunlight energy to make food (sugar) for the plant. Chloroplasts are found mainly in the leaf cells in plants. Cells in the top half of the leaf, called palisade cells, have many chloroplasts. Cells in the bottom half of the leaf, called spongy cells, have fewer chloroplasts. Not all plant cells contain chloroplasts. For example cells inside the stem, and root cells, usually lack chloroplasts. Also the 'skin' cells (epidermis) on the leaves do not contain chloropasts.

What contain chlorophyll?
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, but chloroplasts are only found in plant cells.
What leaf part has many chloroplasts?
the chloroplasts aren't a part of the actual leaf. they are individual organelles found in the cytoplasm of a cell.
What has many cells and a chloroplasts?
chloroplasts are in the plant cells.there are some other cells contain them too.
Could mitochondria be found within photosynthetic protist?
Yes, mitochondria can be found within photosynthetic protists. These eukaryotic organisms, such as algae, possess both chloroplasts for photosynthesis and mitochondria for cellular respiration. The presence of mitochondria allows them to efficiently produce energy by utilizing both light and organic compounds. This dual capability is a key feature of many photosynthetic protists.
What is endosymbiotic hypothesis?
The endosymbiotic hypothesis postulates that an early eukaryotic cells lacking mitochondria and chloroplasts phagocytosed early aerobic prokaryotes and photosynthetic prokaryotes and rather than digesting them, formed a symbiotic relationship with them, offering them nutrients and shelter (therefore the 'endo-' part) and getting very efficient energy generating systems in return. This hypothesis was proposed after mitochondria and chloroplasts were found to share many structure and mechanistic similarities with aerobic and photosynthetic prokaryotes, and that mitochondria and chloroplasts contained their own genetic material and capable of producing some proteins. The hypothesis is the norm now as to the evolution of mitochondria and chloroplasts however many questions remain to be solved such as whether the evolution of eukaryotism occurred before or after the assimilation of other cells through endosymbiosis.
