Our body cells lack one cell organelle which is present in plants, that is, chloroplast. Chloroplast contains a pigment called chlorophyll which is necessary for the photosynthetic reactions to take place. Moreover, we inspire O2 and expire CO2 which is just opposite to that of plant. Then we cannot absorb water from soil neither we can absorb sunlight. So, these are various reasons why we cannot photosynthesize like plants but depend upon them for food.
