Why don't tomatoes have chloroplasts?

Answer 1

Tomato fruit was created by the photosynthesis that occurred in the leaves of the plant itself. This is where the chlorophyll is situated. Specifically the stoma of the plant cell. The chlorophyll contained in these leaves allows sunlight to be converted into the energy required for the plant to grow. All plants grow to reproduce (unless genetically modified) and by producing fruit such as a tomato, the plant is able to do this with the seed contained in the fruit, and therefore continue its lineage.

Answer 2

Tomatoes are heterotrophic plants, meaning they get their energy from consuming other organisms. As such, they do not need chloroplasts for photosynthesis like autotrophic plants do. Instead, tomatoes rely on getting their energy from sunlight through the food they consume.

Answer 3

because the cells of the tomato do not undergo photosynthesis, the leaves do

Answer 4

Because choloroplast is what makes a plant green and we arn't green

Answer 5

Fungi are heterotrophic (saprophytic, parasitic or symbiotic) organisms, so they make their own food from other dead or living organisms.

Answer 6

because chloroplast are a part of photosynthesis, and plants generally conduct photosynthesis in the leaves.

Answer 7

Ferns are also plants.So they have chloroplasts.
