Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, Chloroplast is the organelle that is found in a plant cell but not in an animal cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts and other specialized plastids, and a large central vacuole, which are not found within animal cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is a common perception that animal cells do not have chloroplasts, the organelles that performs photosynthesis. Yet, a small number of sea slugs are able to incorporate carbon from CO2 by performing photosynthesis using sequestered chloroplasts from the macroalgae in their diet.
Detailed explanation-4: -The organelles found only in plant cells include chloroplast, cell wall and a vacuole. The chloroplasts contain a green pigment chlorophyll that is responsible for the process of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-5: -Chloroplasts contain green pigment called chlorophyll which helps in manufacture of food through the process of photosynthesis. Since, animals do not manufacture food so they do not need chloroplast. And hence, chloroplast is found only in plant cell.
