Because more light energy will be able to reach the chloroplasts and chlorophyll can then trap the light energy. hence, more chloroplasts appear on the top half of the leaf to absorb more light, mainly for the use of photosynthesis.
Chloroplasts are on the top of the leaf so that it can collect sunlight to fuel the photosynthesis.
it is the place where the sun can get easily, for photosynthesis.
Chloroplasts are located throughout the entire leaf and plant not just at the top.
Chloroplast collect the photon from sunlight which is necesary to produce food as the area of leaves are bigger it can get more energy so chloroplast can found in leaves
Upper surface gets much amount of light.So photosynthesis occurs efficiently.
Because photosynthesis becomes efficient. That is because of getting more light
Surface area is increased.
With smaller cells, there is a greater surface area.
What would be the advantages to having no chloroplasts in the cells of the spongy mesophyll? Fewer chloroplasts in the spongy mesophyll because most of the light energy is absorbed by the chloroplasts of the palisade mesophyll. ... They waxy cuticle keeps water inside the leaf cells.
Why is it an advantage to have dead cells on the surface of the body? Why is it an advantage to have dead cells on the surface of the body?
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.

It can protect your body from harmful substances.
Surface area is increased.
With smaller cells, there is a greater surface area.
Animal cells don't have chloroplasts. Only plant cells have them, so it can't be in any way an "advantage" to animal cells.
With smaller cells, there is a greater surface area.
Only cells which can get sunlight have chloroplasts. There is no purpose for others having it
A plant cell, human cells do not contain chloroplasts.
Mesophyll cells having chloroplasts are called chlorenchyma.
except plants and protists. Other cells are not having.

It is an advantage because,if you get hurt in any way,newly-formed cells will not be damaged.
