They are used to make glucose. Mitochondria is used for that
Along with chloroplasts plant cells contain mitochondria, which is the organelle that synthesizes ATP.
If a plant cell had chloroplasts but lacked mitochondria, it would not be able to perform cellular respiration to generate energy in the form of ATP. This could severely impact the cell's ability to function properly, as ATP is essential for many cellular processes. The presence of chloroplasts would allow the cell to still carry out photosynthesis to produce glucose, but without mitochondria, it would not be able to efficiently convert this glucose into ATP.
Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy. Mitochondria then use this energy to generate ATP through cellular respiration. Together, they maintain the energy balance within the cell, with chloroplasts producing energy and mitochondria utilizing it efficiently.
Chloroplasts do not directly synthesize ATP. They produce ATP through the process of photosynthesis, where light energy is converted into chemical energy and stored in the form of ATP molecules. This ATP can then be used by the plant cell for cellular processes.
ATP is known as Adenosine TriPhosphate. Hence the abbreviation ATP. ATP is produced by the ribosome in a cell. ATP is energy for the cell.

Chloroplasts allow the plant cell to produce energy through photosynthesis. They transform light energy (usually from the Sun) into free energy for the plant (in the form of ATP).
I don't believe so. PLANT CELLS and such can produce ATP anaerobically in complete darkness; but chloroplasts are mechanisms inside that cell whose sole purpose is to produce glucose sugar and ATP for the cell. So without light, chloroplasts don't have a job to do.

The mitochondria and chloroplasts are organelles that contain functioning ATP synthetase complexes in their membranes. These complexes are responsible for producing ATP through oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria and photophosphorylation in the chloroplasts.

animal cells do no contain the chloroplasts that collect the sunlight in a plant cell to transfer glucose into ATP.
No, they are not. In a plant cell, it is the chloroplasts that use sunlight to produce glucose during photosynthesis. The glucose produced is used by the mitochondria during aerobic respiration, the process which produces ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the energy-carrier molecule.

The power plant of the cell where energy is produced is the mitochondria. Mitochondria convert nutrients from food into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the main energy source for cellular processes.
The organelles responsible for the synthesis of ATP are mitochondria. In plant cells, ATP is also produced in chloroplasts during photosynthesis. In animal cells, mitochondria are the primary organelles for ATP production through cellular respiration.
