Do variegated leaves contain starch?
sometimes the leaves which are not green contain chlorophyll. red /yellow like colored leaves contain it but the color pigment are higher than chlorophyll but the fact is colorless plants such as mushrooms doesn't contain it.
Do coloured leaves like croton make their own food?
Yes, because there are different colored chlorophyll. Plants use chlorophyll to photosynthesize in the presence of sunlight.
Why are volvox green?
Volvox are green because they contain chlorophyll like other green algae and plants.
Does plants with non green leaves do not carry out photosynthesis?
True plants (as opposed to fungus) have chlorophyll in their leaves. They carry out photosynthesis like any other plant, but other chemicals in the leaves mask the chlorophyll, giving the leaf a non-green hue.There is also a species of parasitic dodder (Cuscuta europaea) which does not photosynthesize, and depends on other plants for nutrition.
What pigments are found in chloroplasts besides choorophyll?
chloroplast contain pigments like - chlorophyll a. chlorophyll b, carotenoids and xanthophylls

What pigment makes the leaves of plants green in color?
the answer varies because not all leaves are the same but most green leaves only contain a lighter shade of green(sort of like a jade green)
Do all leaves extracts contain the same pigments?
Yes, all leaves contain the same pigments but they contain it at different concentrations. Like in the summer all leaves are green (they all contain chlorophyll) and in the autumn, almost all leaves turn brown, orange, or yellow (contain carotenes, lutein, or xanthophylls). These are only seen when the chlorophyll breaks down like in the autumn, but they are not seen when the chlorophyll comes back like in the spring and summer.
Why are some leaves not green?
Some leaves are not green because they contain more of pigments other than chlorophyll, like xanthophylls or carotinoids which give them yellow,red,orange colours.
In the rosebush the chlorophyll is located in what?

Do coloured leaves like croton make their own food?
Yes, because there are different colored chlorophyll. Plants use chlorophyll to photosynthesize in the presence of sunlight.
Why are volvox green?
Volvox are green because they contain chlorophyll like other green algae and plants.
How can you tell if a cell has chlorophyll?
if organisms contain green color they contain chlorophyll. but some organisms like cyanobacteria they contain chlorophyll but also contain blue pigment. So they look like bluish and also some time redish. The organisms who contain chlorophyll they are autrophic and prepare their own food but some time also become parasitic.
Why are vegetables and fruits not green like chlorophyll?
Their leaves are green
Why is a coleus a food producer?
Its because that the chlorophyll are hidden under the coloured pigments.And chlorophyll can make food like the green leaves,the "green"that we are refering are because of the chloropyll.
Do yellow leaves photosynthesis?
"So, plants with leaf color other than green perform photosynthesis just like green-leafed plants (if they did not, they would not live). The chlorophyll needed for photosynthesis is masked among the colorful pigmentation."
Does plants with non green leaves do not carry out photosynthesis?
True plants (as opposed to fungus) have chlorophyll in their leaves. They carry out photosynthesis like any other plant, but other chemicals in the leaves mask the chlorophyll, giving the leaf a non-green hue.There is also a species of parasitic dodder (Cuscuta europaea) which does not photosynthesize, and depends on other plants for nutrition.
