Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In plants, chloroplasts are concentrated particularly in the parenchyma cells of the leaf mesophyll (the internal cell layers of a leaf).
Detailed explanation-2: -Chloroplasts are found in plant cells only because chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which is essential for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll traps sunlight and uses it to prepare food for plants by the process of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-3: -The upper surface of the leaf gets more sunlight so, this surface contains more chloroplasts containing chlorophyll to trap most of sunlight.
