Best Answer

Essentially, yes. Chlorophyll contain four pyrrole rings known as a porphyrin ring, which are linked to each other by methane bridges. Each of these pyrrole rings consists of five atoms - four carbon and one nitrogen. The nitrogen atom has magnesium in the center, as the nucleus. Magnesium functions as an enzyme cofactor during photosynthesis, making it particularly important to the production of ATP
