Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells. They contain the green pigment called chlorophyll, which absorbs sunlight. The chloroplasts use the sunlight energy to make food (sugar) for the plant. Chloroplasts are found mainly in the leaf cells in plants. Cells in the top half of the leaf, called palisade cells, have many chloroplasts. Cells in the bottom half of the leaf, called spongy cells, have fewer chloroplasts. Not all plant cells contain chloroplasts. For example cells inside the stem, and root cells, usually lack chloroplasts. Also the 'skin' cells (epidermis) on the leaves do not contain chloropasts.

Mitochondria is in both animal cells, and plant cells. The mitochondria is the part of the cell that is like the small power house in the animal/plant cell.
In what type of cell does photosyntheis take place?
Photosynthesis takes place in the cells that make up the mesophyll layer of a leaf.
In which type of tissue does photosynthesis take place in a leaf?
Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are organelles found in the cells of plants that conduct photosynthesis.
What makes the choloroplast green?
the substance in leaves, known as chloroplasts involves a single substance called chlorophyll that is a bleach type thing a machig
What type of cells does photosynthesis take place in?
Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which have chlorophyll in them. Chlorophyll absorbs the sunlight. From sunlight, green plants combine carbon dioxide and water to make sugar and oxygen.
Is the brain made out of anything besides nervous tissue?
You have the the other type of cells in the brain. You have the insulating cells in your brain, so that short circuits should not take place in your brain. You have also the blood vessels in your brain.
