Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the chemical needed for photosynthesis - using energy from the sun with carbon dioxide to make sugar. Plants need this because it is their only energy source (with some exceptions such as venus fly traps)
Animals eat plants or other animals, and so do not need to conduct photosynthesis as they have another energy source. If there is no need to photosynthesise there is no point in making chloroplasts.
Chloroplasts are the organelles where photosynthesis occurs and animals lack the ability to perform photosynthesis.****** Plant cells have chloroplast because chloroplast contains the green pigment called as chlorophyll. With the help of chlorophyll plant cells capture energy from sun in the form of sun light. By using this energy, they convert carbon bi oxide and water into glucose. The formula for the same is 6 CO2 + 6 H2O (+ energy.) = C 6 H 12 O 6. Thousands of such glucose molecules are combined to form starch. So plant manufacture there own food for there own use and liberate oxygen to air. Animals eat the plants and get the energy by combustion of glucose. This glucose is obtained by 'digesting' the starch. Animals do not have chloroplast as they do not manufacture there own food but obtain it from plants. The use the glucose and give the carbon bi oxide back to plants. The formula is C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 = 6 C O 2 + 6 H 2 O (+energy.). This energy is exactly same as consumed from sun light. As animals do not manufacture there own food, they do not require chloroplast. This is also called as carbon cycle.
Animal cells don't go through the process of photosynthesis.
Plant cells are autotrophic. Animal cells are heterotrophic.
okay, animal cells don't have chloroplasts!! only plant cells do!! chloroplasts give the plant its green color!!
Chloroplasts are only found in plant cells and not in animal cells. Their function is to help convert sunlight into energy for the plant.
No, both plant and animal cells do not have chloroplast. Plant cells have chloroplast that is why their leaves are green. Such as animals they do not. K.K
Plants have chloroplasts, which contain the pigment chlorophyll, which is why they are green. Chloroplasts are never in animals.
Only plant cells contain chloroplasts. NOT animal cells...

Plant.
There is NO chloroplasts in animal cells. There is only in plant cells because chloroplasts give plants there green color.
the chloroplast is found in both animal and plant cells.

Chloroplasts are found in plant cells.
Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Most prokaryotic cells also do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are always present in plant cells.
