Why are animal cells are not capable of carrying out photosynthesis?
Chloroplasts are the organelles plant cells use for photosynthesis. Animal cells do not contain chloroplasts.Animal cells are not capable of carrying out photosynthesis because of the lack of energy from the sun. Our cells do not have chloroplast which is needed to contribute to photosynthesis. To contribute to photosynthesis you need chloroplast to pull energy from the sun. Animals have mitochondria in the cell which plants also have, but instead of it collecting the energy from the chloroplast the mitochondria collects energy from the food we consume. Fact is, we have a food chain which is needed for energy for animals. Without the chloroplast and chlorophyll, we have no means of photosynthesis.
What cells are involve in photosynthesis?
the plant cell is responsible for photosynthesis
What makes human cells different from plant cells?
The human and the plant cells have different structers Cell wall. It presence in plant cells but not in animal cells. It maintains the shape of the plant cells and protect in from bursting. Chloroplast. Green pigment found in the plant cells that captures light for the process of photosynthesis. It becomes like a sac and occupies 96%or98% of the cell And plant cells do contain mitochondria. They need to carry out respiration and need energy for growth and little movement too.
What type of cells carry out photosynthesis?
In a leaf photosynthesis takes place in the mesophyll (middle leaf), mostly in the upper layer of palisade cells but also in the spongy layer.The plant cells don't actually carry out photosynthesis - it takes place in the Chloroplasts.Extra CreditChloroplasts maintain a lot of similarities with photosynthetic bacteria, including a circular chromosome and prokaryotic ribosomes. This has lead to the endosymbiotic theory that suggests that photosynthetic bacteria were acquired by primeval eukaryotic cells which went on to become plant cells.When a plant cell divides, it's Chloroplasts divide taking their unique DNA along with them, Mitochondria behave in a similar fashion.
Do plants cells or animal cells carry out cellular respiration?
Yes. Plants and animals need energy. Energy must therefore be made in the cells.No, only animal cells carry on cellular respiration.animal cells carryon cellular respiration. plant cells carry out photosynthesis which is the opposite of respiration.
Do plant cells need photosynthesis?
plant cells need photosynthesis and respiration to create energy for cell work, reproduction, and repairs.
What structuresdo plant need that animals do not need?
Plant cells need chloroplasts for photosynthesis
Plant cells need carbon dioxide which is used for?
Photosynthesis
Why do plants cells have choroplast and animal cell do not have them?
Plant cells have chloroplasts because they undergo photosynthesis, which is the process of converting sunlight into energy. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which is necessary for capturing sunlight. Animal cells do not undergo photosynthesis; therefore, they do not need chloroplasts.
Are chloroplast in animal cells?
no. Chloroplasts are only in plant cells. chloroplasts are what makes the plant green.
What part of a plant is the sun's energy necessary to do its job?
The chloroplasts in plant cells need sunlight for photosynthesis.
Plant cells use photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
True. Plants need photosynthesis for food production. Respiration is for energy production
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.
Why do plant cells need both chloroplasts and michondria?
Chloroplasts are needed for photosynthesis. Mitochondria is needed for respiration

Produce its own food
