Chloroplasts are only effective if they receive sufficient light, water, and air. The increased surface area formed by multiple smaller chloroplasts maximizes there efficiency.

Why do you think that there are many small chloroplasts in plant cells instead of just one or two large ones?

Because scientists have seen them.You can use a microscope to observe them.


What cell has a large surface area and contians lots of chloroplasts?

A plant cell, specifically a leaf cell, has a large surface area and contains many chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy. The large surface area of a plant cell allows for maximum light absorption for this process to occur efficiently.


How do you compare a plant cell to an animal cell?

Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts for photosynthesis, and a large central vacuole, which are not present in animal cells. Animal cells have centrioles for cell division, lysosomes for digestion, and a round shape, while plant cells have a rectangular shape. Both types of cells have a nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum.

What is a landform that has small and large rocks?

Your question is OK but it is a bit too general to help you with an answer. For instance: A cliff will crumble to produce small and large rocks. A stony desert surface will have small and large rocks present on it. A river bed will have small and large rock in it. A moraine is comprised of small and large rocks. A beach is comprised of small and large rocks. And there are many many more possible answers. However, I feel that you want a specific answer and for this you would need to ask your question a bit more precisely.
