Question

Do cells without chloroplasts also depend on sunlight for their food?

Answer 1

No

Explanation:

Plant cells that does not have chloroplasts are plants that does'nt create their own food. These plants usually have stored food.
An example would be mushrooms.

Answer 2

Cells without chloroplasts can't carry on photosynthesis. These cells don't depend on light directly as thees obtain food from green cells of the plant.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is carried out only by green cells in plant which contain chlorophyll. These cells depend upon light for the synthesis of food during photosynthesis.

Glucose `("C"_6"H"_12"O"_6)` is the end product of photosynthesis and is converted into other carbohydrates. The food synthesized in green cells is not used completely by these cells. The bulk of the food synthesized is transported through phloem to the the cells in non-green parts of the plant, such as roots and non-green cells of stem.

Chlorophyll is present in leaves and delicate stem of typical flowering plant. The cells in the non-green parts obtain food from leaves. These cell are thus not dependent on light directly, but indirectly as these obtain food from leaves, which are dependent upon light for the process of photosynthesis.
