Chloroplasts do not "eat" in the same way that animals do. They contain chlorophyll and other pigments that capture sunlight and convert it into chemical energy through photosynthesis. This helps plants produce their own food by converting carbon dioxide and water into sugars.

Does celery contain chloroplasts?
Of course they contain. That is why they are green
Do the cells of the onion bulb possess chloroplasts?
No, the cells of an onion bulb do not contain chloroplasts. Onions belong to the group of plants that store energy as carbohydrates in their bulb. Chloroplasts are predominantly found in green plant tissues where photosynthesis occurs.
Do nitrogen fixing bacteria have chloroplasts?
No bacteria have chloroplasts. Plants have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts were originally cyanobacteria -- they are the results of an endosymbiosis between a cyanobacterium and a eukaryote.
Are chloroplasts related to chlorophyll?
Yes they are related. Chlorophylls are in chloroplasts
Where is the thylakiod located in a cell?
The chloroplasts
Do ants eat chloroplasts?
yes they do
How does volvox eat?
They eat through Photosynthesis by using the chloroplasts
Why chloroplast is only found in plant cells?
Chloroplasts capture energy from the sun and turn that energy into food. That's how allot of plants eat. Animals eat with their mouths, so there's no need for chloroplasts.
Why are all animals thankful for chloroplasts?
Animals are not thankful for chloroplasts because they do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are found in plant cells and some algae, where they are responsible for photosynthesis, the process of converting sunlight into energy. Animals rely on plants for food and oxygen produced through photosynthesis, but they themselves do not possess chloroplasts.
Does celery contain chloroplasts?
Of course they contain. That is why they are green
Why don't animal cell have chloroplast?
Animal cells don't have chloroplasts because they don't need to photosynthesis as they get the glucose they need to respire from the food they eat.
Do onions cell have chloroplasts?
No
How doe a euglena eat?
Euglanas have chloroplasts, to absorb sunlight. If sunlight is not available, it can absorb nutrients from decayed organic material.
Do the cells of the onion bulb possess chloroplasts?
No, the cells of an onion bulb do not contain chloroplasts. Onions belong to the group of plants that store energy as carbohydrates in their bulb. Chloroplasts are predominantly found in green plant tissues where photosynthesis occurs.
Do nitrogen fixing bacteria have chloroplasts?
No bacteria have chloroplasts. Plants have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts were originally cyanobacteria -- they are the results of an endosymbiosis between a cyanobacterium and a eukaryote.
Is a the chloroplasts in an animal and plant cell?
Chloroplasts are only found in plant cells because plants use them to collect energy from the sun and turn it into their own food. Animals eat other things to get their energy, so they don't need chlorophyll.
Where is the thylakiod located in a cell?
The chloroplasts
