Root hair cells do not need chloroplasts as they are under the ground. They can not reach sunlight for photosynthesis. So there is no point of them having chloroplastsgougugugiugyyreslololololololmfao

∙ 13y agoThey're buried under ground, therefore they don't see sunlight, therefore they couldn't ever photosynthesise therefore they don't need chloroplasts.

Would you expect a plant's roots or leaves to have more chloroplasts?
Chloroplasts need sunlight for its function. So leaves have more chloroplasts
Which parts of plant does not have any chloroplasts?
Parts cannot get light. Mainly they are roots
Why do root hair cells not have chloroplasts?
They don't have have chloroplasts because they are underground in the dark and cannot photosythsize
Does a root cell have a chloroplast?
yes, roots are apart of a plant. All plant cells have chloroplasts and therefore root cells have chloroplasts.
Why might there be few fewer chloroplasts in the root of a plant than in a stem or a leaf?
chloroplasts make chloraphyll, which helps plants make sugar in what is called photosynthesis. less sunlight reaches those parts and there is no need for chloroplasts there. leaves are called the food factory of the cell,the main function of the chloroplast is photosynthesis by which it makes food for the plant.The roots and stem do not have this function of making food thus the chloroplasts are less common in these parts of the plant. by harjaap singh

Would you expect to find chloroplast in plant cell?
the are not found in root cells, because roots don't photosynthesise they don't need chloroplasts and also if they did they wouldnt get any sunlight as the roots are undergroound, roots only breath in oxygen and take up water and nutrients the plant needs.

What do leaves have that roots don't?
Chloroplasts and a view of the sun.
What type of plant cell does not contain chloroplast in it?
The roots of a plant cell does not have any chloroplasts as they do not need it to trap sunlight.
Why do leaves contain more chloroplasts than roots?
Plant leaves contain more chloroplasts than plant roots because photosynthesis occurs in the leaves. In order to carry out the various functions of photosynthesis, a large number of chloroplasts is required.
Why do cells of plant roots lack chloroplasts?
Chloroplasts hold the nutrients and all that the roots do are suck it up and its stored in the chloroplasts. So chloroplast just hold in the nutrients while the roots suck up the nutrients from the soil so why would there be chloroplasts in a part of the plant that just sucks it up.
Why does a tree need roots?
How are they supposed to absorb water without any roots?
Why are plant leafs green but roots are not?
The roots of a plant aren't green because there is no chlorophyll in the roots. All of the chlorophyll in the chloroplasts are taken to the leaves of a plant. <3
