Any kind of plant that can produce glucose and oxygen in photosynthesis.


What kind of cells use chlorophyll to produce glucose?

Animal cells - this is wrong answer Plant cells containing chloroplasts produce glucose by photosynthesis.


What do both plant and animal cells break down to get energy?

Both plant and animal cells break down glucose (C6H12O6) in order to create adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, which provides energy for the cell. Plant cells are able to manufacture glucose through photosynthesis, but animal cells must acquire the glucose by ingesting it from another source. Both types of cells undergo cellular respiration, which is the process by which the ATP is produced out of glucose.


How do your cells obtain glucose?

Plant cells gain glucose by absorbing water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight and then through the chemical reaction photosynthesis make the glucose. Animal cells gain glucose by taking in oxygen and sugars containing the glucose made by plants.


What is a chloroplast work in a cell?

Chloroplasts in plant cells (not in animal cells) is where photosynthesis takes place. Light energy gets absorbed and combined with carbon dioxide turn into glucose and oxygen.

Does respiration occur in both plants and animals?

Respiration occurs in both animal and plant cells but photosynthesis occurs in plant cells. Respiration is defined as the oxidation of glucose to release energy, both plant and animal cells respire glucose.


What are the functional differences between chloroplasts and mitochondria?

Chloroplast are found in plant cells and use the sunlight to break down carbon dioxide and water into oxygen, glucose and water. Mitochondria is found in animal cells and breaks down glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, heat energy and water.
