Are there cells in a leaf without chloroplasts?

no


What are two observations a scientist could make about the leaf cells and chloroplasts?

Leaf cells contain chloroplasts. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts as they retain energy from the sun. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which make leaves appear green.


What do you call cells in a leaf that contains chlorophyll?

The chloroplasts.


What is SITE OF LIGHT REACTION IN THE CELLS OF A LEAF?

The chloroplasts.


How are leaf cells and bulb cells different?

Yes because they are both plant cells. The Leaf Cell has larger chloroplasts.


Cells in the leaves of plants contain specialized structures called chloroplasts how are chloroplasts related to the function of leaf cells?

Feature


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.

Where in the plant are cells with many chloroplasts?

a leaf palisade cell


How can you tell the difference between a root cell and a leaf cell?

A Root cell doesn't have any Chloroplasts on them where as leaf cells do. Leaf cells need sunlight which is absorbed into the cells of the leaf: this job is done by the chloroplasts present in the cells, but when the roots are present under the ground, the cells do not need sunlight. hope u got Ur answer.
