Indicators can also be prepared from plants. The red, purple, and blue colors of most plants indicate the presence of an organic substance called anthocyanins. The purpose of putting alum is to retrieve the anthocyanins present in plants.
What solvent can dissolve betalains and anthocyanins?
Many betalains and anthocyanins are soluble in water.
What is the pigment that causes red leaves?
anthocyanins
What distinguishes lower plants from higher plants?
Higher plants show some degree of complexity like in;tissue differentiation,vascularisation as they have the phloem and xylem Also there is an advancement in reproduction in that higher plants show alternation of generations unlike lower plants
Dictyosomes is present in animals or plants?
Dictyosomes are present in plant cells

Why are some plants red or purple when all plants have chloroplasts and that is what makes plants green?
Because those plants have anthocyanins in them.
What are non- green plants?
non green plants are simply plants that are not green in colour because of less quantity of chlorophyll in some species of plants. as chlorophyll has a green pigment and it plays a fairly big role in photosynthessis, these non green plants have a little and that is why they are not green. yet, they can make food from sunlight with that little chlorophyll that they have. another explanation is that the non-green leaves live on saprophytic nutrition. examples of such plants are: blue colorado spruce and japanese red maple.
What does anthocyanin do in plants?
Anthocyanins have many functions in plants. First they are brightly pigmented molecules, used in flowers to attract pollinators. They are also responsible for the color in leaves during autumn. Because they are pigmented, they can act as a plant's "sunscreen" protecting it from bleaching by the sun. Lastly, anthocyanins are powerfulantioxidants, which protect plants from the damage of oxygen radicals.

What does phycoerythrin do to magenta colored plants?
there is no phycoerythrin present in plants it is only found in red algae, cyanobacteria, cynelles, cryptomaonads and glaucophytes. so in higher plants must be anthocyanin.
When light intensity is below 200 photons do sun plants or shade plants have a higher rate of photosynthesis?
No, shade plants have a higher rate of photosynthesis at lower light intensities. They are more adapted to use the end range of light (red, 730 nm) that is present in shady conditions than sun tolerant plants are.
Are anthocyanins a natural additive in food?
Anthocyanins are natural antioxidants found in certain fruits. It is better to get these antioxidants in the diet than in additives in foods.
