Answer:

chloroplast absorbs the energy in sunlight and uses it to produce sugars. chloroplasts are not needed in plant roots because their function is to use energy from the sun and to convert into starches to be used by the plant. Since sunlight doesn't reach the roots, it would be impossible to use chloroplasts anyways.
