Answer:

Animal cells would benefit from chloroplasts.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 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.
  • Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells.
  • It is like a solar panel that changes sunlight energy into electric energy.
  • If animals had chloroplasts they would be able to do photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for enabling photosynthetic organisms to do photosynthesis.
  • Animals don't need chloroplasts because they acquire sugar from their diet; they just need mitochondria. Vacuoles are found in both plant and animal cells. A big, solitary vacuole is found in each plant cell and is used to store water and nutrients.
