If the chloroplasts in a plant's cells became damaged, the most direct consequence would be that the plant would not make glucose and oxygen. Chloroplasts are essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy (glucose) and release oxygen as a byproduct. Without functioning chloroplasts, the plant would struggle to produce the energy it needs for growth and survival.
