Answer:Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. ... Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells. The entire process is called photosynthesis and it all depends on the little green chlorophyll molecules in each chloroplast.

Chloroplasts are plant cell organelles that convert light energy into relatively stable chemical energy via the photosynthetic process.
Explanation:
- Chloroplast contain organelles which are specialized in character by their chlorophyll which has higher concentration.
- By the process of photosynthesis they convert light energy into chemical energy.
- In particular organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy rich molecules.
- The cell walls allow plants to have rigid structures as varied as wood trunks and supple leaves and vacuoles allow plant cells to change size.
- Absorption of light energy and conversion of it into biological energy.
- Production of NAPDH2 and evolution of oxygen through the process of photosys of water.
- Production of ATP by photo phosphorylation. NADPH2 and ATP are the assimilatory powers of photosynthesis.
- The most important function of the chloroplast is to synthesize food by the process of photosynthesis.
- Absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy.
- Chloroplast has a structure called chlorophyll which functions by trapping the solar energy and is used for the synthesis of food in all green plants.
- Plant cells are the building blocks of plants.
- Photosynthesis is the major function performed by plant cells. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of the plant cell.
- It is the process of preparing food by the plants by utilizing sunlight, carbon dioxide and water.
- Chloroplasts are a type of membrane bound plastids that contain a network of membranes embedded into a liquid matrix and harbor the photosynthetic pigment called chlorophyll. It is this pigment that imparts a green color to plant parts and serves to capture light energy.
