yes
It's called chlorophyll.
SUNLIGHT
The primary function of plant leaves is to trap sunlight for photosynthesis. Solar energy is a vital component in the manufacture of a plant's food.
Leaves are designed to trap sunlight, not food. They contain chlorophyll, which captures sunlight and uses it to convert carbon dioxide and water into energy through photosynthesis. This energy is then used by the plant to produce food in the form of sugars. Additionally, leaves contain stomata, small openings that allow for gas exchange during photosynthesis.
When the leaves of the plant shed off there will be no chlorophyll to trap sunlight, so the water will not evaporate...
The leaves absorb sunlight and change it into energy.
Community Answer 1The leaf saves the water and nutrients.___________________________________Community Answer 2Contains the pallisade mesophyll layer which is responsible for photosynthetic activities.
Plants trap solar energy in their leaves through a process called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis occurs in specialized cells within the leaves called chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll, the pigment that captures sunlight and converts it into chemical energy for the plant to use.
Chlorophyll. This pigment is found in the leaves.
It is the pigment. we call them photosynthetic pigments.
The leaves of a plant take in sunlight and carbon dioxide.
The leaves collect sunlight and turn it into food for the plant and so it can grow.The leaves take in the sunlight that the plants need to produce food or flowers ;creating energy
