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.


Is chloroplast found in both animal cells and plant cells?

Nope. It is only in plant cells. The mitochondria is basically the same thing as a chloroplast, only it is found in animal cells. Plant Cell - Chloroplast Animal Cell - Mitochondria


Do animal cells have mitochondria and chloroplast?

They need energy to live.Mitochondria give this energy.


Organelle that generates atp?

In plant cells, the chloroplast generates the atp. In animal cells, the mitochondria generates the atp.


Does a Animal Cell have a chloroplast?

No, animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and some protists, where they are responsible for photosynthesis. Animal cells obtain energy through other organelles like mitochondria.


Do animal cells have chromoplasts?

No, the animal counterpart to the Plant Cell chloroplast is the Mitochondria.


Is a mitochondria located in the plant cell or animal cell?

Mitochondria are found in animal cells. The plant equivalent of this "energy factory" is the chloroplast.


What part of the cell generates energy for the cell?

In animal cells, the organelle that provides energy for the cell is the mitochondria. In plant cells, this would be the chloroplast.


What organelle does photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in?

Respiration occurs in two compartments - glycolysis in the cytoplasm and the TCA cycle and electron transport chain in the mitochondria. However, cells that are actively photosynthesising do not need to respire because ATP is synthesised in the chloroplast.


Chloroplasts are to plants as what are to aerobic respiration?

Mitochondria are to aerobic respiration. Mitochondria are responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells, similar to how chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells.


Shape of mitochondria and chloroplast?

The mitochondria and chloroplast are both complex cell organelles that are found in eukaryote cells. These are both oval in shape.


What type of cell would you examine to find a chloroplast?

They are in photosynthetic cells.They are in eukariyotes.
