No, animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant and algae cells that are responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which plants and algae convert light energy into chemical energy.
They contain chlorophyll, which absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Chloroplasts are unique to photosynthetic organisms and are not found in animal cells.
Animals obtain energy from the food they consume, rather than from photosynthesis. Instead of chloroplasts, animal cells have other organelles such as mitochondria which are responsible for cellular respiration, the process of converting energy from food into a form that can be used by the cell.
Mitochondria are found in almost all eukaryotic organisms, including animals and plants, and are responsible for generating the majority of the cell’s supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is used as a source of chemical energy.
