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.

Detailed explanation-2: -For photosynthesis to take place the organism must have chlorophyll. Since animal cells do not have chlorophyll photosynthesis does not take place in them.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -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.

Detailed explanation-5: -The process by which plants generate their own food by using light, carbon dioxide, water and chlorophyll is known as photosynthesis. Chlorophyll pigment is present in chloroplasts of the plant cell. Due to the absence of chloroplasts in animal cells, photosynthesis does not take place in them.
