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.

What else can I help you with?
In what type of cells do plants and animals processes take place?
In plants, essential processes like photosynthesis occur in chloroplasts within plant cells. In animals, various cellular activities, including energy production, take place in mitochondria within animal cells.
What type of cells do not undergo mitosis?
The type of cells that do not undergo mitosis are mature nerve cells and muscle cells.
What type of cells are chlorenchyma?
Chlorenchyma cells are a type of parenchyma cells specialized for photosynthesis. These cells contain chloroplasts, which are responsible for converting sunlight into energy for the plant through photosynthesis. Chlorenchyma is found in leaves, where it helps the plant produce food.
Which type of cell division takes place in a Streptococcus cell but not in a human cell?
Streptococcus cells reproduce through binary fission, a type of asexual cell division. This process involves the splitting of a single parent cell into two identical daughter cells. In contrast, human cells undergo mitosis, a type of cell division that produces two genetically identical daughter cells with identical DNA.
Which type of cells do not undergo mitosis?
The type of cells that do not undergo mitosis are the cells in the human body that are considered to be terminally differentiated, such as nerve cells and muscle cells. These cells have exited the cell cycle and do not divide further.
In what type of cells do the above processes take place?
3
What type of cells do the mitochondria take place in?
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 what type of cells do plants and animals processes take place?
In plants, essential processes like photosynthesis occur in chloroplasts within plant cells. In animals, various cellular activities, including energy production, take place in mitochondria within animal cells.
Does meiosis take place in root tip cells?
No. Meosis is a reductional division that brings about the generation of gametes. Mitosis takes place in the root tip cells. The root tip of a healthy plant is growing rapidly and there is a requirement for many newly formed cells.
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
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.
In which type of tissue does photosynthesis take place in a leaf?
Photosynthesis takes place in the palisade mesophyll cells located in the upper layer of the leaf known as the palisade layer. These cells are densely packed with chloroplasts, which are the organelles responsible for carrying out photosynthesis.
What type of reproduction take place in panther?
asexual
In osmosis Jones what type of viruses are fighting on the street as cells place bets?
Chicken pox
What type of reaction take place in rancidity?
chemical reaction takes place in rancidity
What cell is in the cytoplasm?
All cells, including animal, plant, and bacterial cells, have cytoplasm. The cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance that fills the cell and is where many of the cell's organelles are located and where many cellular processes take place.
