Answer:

Chloroplast is crucial for photosynthesis not mitochondria...

Explanation:

Chloroplast isn't found in animal cells not because of it's evolutionary choice but because of it's rather different way of energy production. Chloroplast is modified by nature to produce energy using photons or photosynthesis that can only occur in plants but mitochondria does not used photons. It utilizes electron transport chain strategy instead.

Animals would never be able to make their surfaces photosensitive for photosynthesis to occur and produce energy with the help of chloroplasts.

Animals lose heat through the surface areas of their skin. A small animal, such as a mouse, uses a much larger proportion of its
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Because of the difference in surface area to volume ratio

Explanation:

Surface are to volume ratio is the area of an object that is exposed to the external environment (surface area), compared to the amount within an object (volume).

Therefore an elephant has a lower surface area to volume ratio than a mouse.

The smaller an object is the greater its surface area to volume ratio.

Small animals have much more surface area per mass than large animals. With so much surface area, they lose heat very quickly. So, a mouse, with a lot of surface area per mass, must spend a lot more energy to stay warm than a large animal.
