In order for photosynthesis to occur, the organelle chloroplast is needed. Eukaryotic cells (typically plants) do contain chloroplasts which the plant can use to make food.

However, there are several prokaryotic organisms such as the purple bacteria that contains a different kind of chlorophyll and can photosynthesize.

Where does duplication of chromosomes occur?

Inside the nucleus in eukaryotic cells. In the cytoplasm in prokaryotic cells.


What occurs in all eukaryotic cells if photosynthesis only occurs in plants?

In all eukaryotic cells, mitochondria carry out cellular respiration to produce energy in the form of ATP. Unlike photosynthesis, which occurs in plant cells with chloroplasts, cellular respiration is a process common to all eukaryotic cells for generating energy by breaking down glucose using oxygen.


Which cellular organelle is required for photosynthesis in eukaryotic cells?

Chloroplasts are the cellular organelles required for photosynthesis in eukaryotic cells. They contain chlorophyll, which captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy through photosynthesis.


Where is chloroplasts located in cells?

Which eukaryotic organelles are not present in all eukaryotic cells?

Centrioles and chloroplasts are eukaryotic organelles that are not present in all eukaryotic cells. Centrioles are typically found in animal cells where they play a role in cell division, while chloroplasts are only found in plant cells and some protists where they are involved in photosynthesis.
