Can a plant such as a mushroom manufacture glucose by the process of photosynthesis?

No, mushrooms cannot perform photosynthesis as they do not have chlorophyll, the pigment needed to convert sunlight into glucose. Instead, mushrooms obtain nutrients by breaking down organic matter through a process called decomposition.


What is the essential organelle that plant and algae cells possess that other eukaryotes do not that allows them to perform photosynthesis?

Chloroplasts are the essential organelles that plant and algae cells possess for photosynthesis. These organelles contain chlorophyll, a pigment that captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis. Other eukaryotic cells do not have chloroplasts and cannot perform photosynthesis.


Does a fruit perform photosynthesis?

No, fruits do not perform photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process that occurs in the leaves of a plant, where sunlight is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Fruits are the mature ovary of a plant that contain seeds and develop after the process of photosynthesis has occurred in the leaves.

Why do plant cells have choroplast and animal cells?

Plant cells have chloroplasts because they undergo photosynthesis, a process that converts sunlight into energy. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts because they do not perform photosynthesis; instead, they rely on consuming other organisms for energy.
