Solution

The correct answer is: None, as animals do not have chloroplasts.

Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and some algae. They are responsible for carrying out photosynthesis, a process that converts light energy into chemical energy (sugars) that can be used by the cell. Animals, however, do not have chloroplasts and cannot carry out photosynthesis. Instead, they obtain their energy by consuming other organisms.

All cells have parts that work together to carry out functions necessary for life. The information below describes the functions of some parts of a plant cell. Read the text and look at the diagrams. Then, follow the instructions below.Chloroplasts are cell parts that use photosynthesis to make sugar from carbon dioxide and water. A plant cell can use this sugar as a source of energy.Mitochondria are cell parts that break down sugar. Like other cell parts, mitochondria are found within the cytoplasm. In both the mitochondria and the cytoplasm, chemical reactions break down sugar to form new molecules. This process releases energy for the plant cell to use.Complete the text.In a plant cell,  use photosynthesis to make sugar. Then, the cytoplasm and  carry out chemical reactions using the sugar. These reactions release energy for the plant cell to use.chloroplasts . . . mitochondriamitochondria . . . chloroplastsThis example shows that the plant cell's parts  to get energy for the cell.depend on each otherdo not depend on each otherSubmit
