This is because plants and animals
obtain energy using different organelles. Animal cells
use mitochondria to convert energy into food, and plant
cells
use
chloroplasts
to convert light into energy through photosynthesis...

Chloroplasts are organelles specialized for photosynthesis. Animals do not photosynthesize; therefore, they do not need chloroplasts.
