Plant cells can use energy from the sun to make food animal cells can’t which organelle is responsible for the difference between plant and animal cells

The organelle responsible for the difference between plant and animal cells in terms of their ability to use energy from the sun to make food is the chloroplast. Chloroplasts are specialized organelles found in plant cells that contain chlorophyll, a pigment responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts, and therefore cannot perform photosynthesis to produce their own food.
