Chloroplasts are tiny organelles, much smaller than a plant cell, so it is convenient to have several of them in a cell. The reason for having such small chloroplasts is that the smaller they are, the higher their ratio of surface area to volume will be, and hence, the more easily they can exchange chemicals with their immediate environment. They need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, but they do not need lungs to make sure they will get enough of it; they can absorb it through their surfaces.
What else can I help you with?
Would a plant cell die if it lost its chloroplasts?
No, there are several living cells in the plant without chloroplasts.
What has a cell wall and several chloroplasts?
They are distinct in plant cells.Never in animal cells.
What structure is found on a plant cell but not on a animal like cell?
There are several cells. They are chloroplasts,cell wall,glyoxisomes etc

What kind of cells has chloroplasts?
The only cell that has chloroplasts is plant cell
What cell has a cell wall many organelles including mitochondria a nucleus a vacuole and several chloroplasts?
This description fits a plant cell. Plant cells have a cell wall for structural support, various organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts for energy production, a nucleus for genetic material control, and a large central vacuole for storage and structural support.
What is the function of the plant cell that contains many chloroplasts?
The function of a plant cell that contains many chloroplasts is photosynthesis.
Is chlorophyll or chloroplasts in animal or plant cell?
Chloroplasts along with cell walls can only be found in plant cells.
Is chloroplasts found in the plant or animal cell?
the chloroplast is found in both animal and plant cells.
What cell has chloroplasts onion cell or elodea cell?
Both. Both cells are plant cells and plant cells have chloroplasts. (Elodea is the waterweeds)
Are chloroplasts only present in the plant cell cytoplasm?
Chloroplasts are present in plant cell cytoplasm and in some of the protists cells.
What has a cell wall and chloroplasts?
Plant cells contain both chloroplasts and cell walls. Animal cells have cell membranes instead of cell walls and mitochondria instead of chloroplasts. Prokaryotes, such as bacteria and archaea, may have cell walls, but have no membrane-bound organelles such as chloroplasts.
