NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Because animals get sugar from the food they eat, they do not need chloroplasts: just mitochondria. Both plant and animal cells have vacuoles. A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chloroplasts are found in plant cells, but not in animal cells. The purpose of the chloroplast is to make sugars that feed the cell’s machinery. Photosynthesis is the process of a plant taking energy from the Sun and creating sugars.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant cells contain organelles called chloroplasts, while animal cells do not. Chloroplasts allow plants to make the food they need to live using photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant cells must be rigid to maintain their posture, and they require chlorophyll, which is found in the chloroplast, for food production. Animals, on the other hand, do not require cell rigidity and do not have chloroplast because they are heterotrophs.

Detailed explanation-5: -Commonalities of energy processing in both plants and animals have become even stronger by the finding that chloroplast can be found in animal cells.
