Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in plant cells which does cause the green color but is not found in animal cells. It is used for the capture of light to be used in photosynthesis.
However, some animals such as the green sea slug are able to take in chlorophyll to give them a green appearance, but this is not the norm.

What job does chlorophyll do for a cell?
It makes it green, but it is only in a plant cell. Animal cells do not have chlorophyll.
What makes a leaf green?
Chlorophyll is what makes leaves green. It is a pigment that allows plants to photosynthesize - i.e. it allows for the absorption energy from light. Chlorophyll appears green because it doesn't absorb this colour of the spectrum very well; that it, it reflects green light more than other colours.
What makes a plant appear green?
The cells that are in the plants are called plant cells and within those plant cells there is a green pigment called chlorophyll in the chloroplast which gives the plants their green color. Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and helps the plant with photosynthesis.
Do stem cells contain chlorophyll?
No, stem cells do not contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is what makes plants green. It is also used as a food dye.
What organelle is found in plant cells and not animal cell?
chloroplasts are the only organelles that make chlorophyll the chemical that makes plants green.

the chlorophyll
What chemical makes the plant cells green?

Why is the grass green not purple?
Grass is a plant. Plants are made of plant cells. Plant cells have chlorophyll in them. Chlorophyll is the GREEN pigment in plant cells, so it makes the grass green.

Why is a plant's LeafGreen?
The chlorophyll in the plant cells is what makes the leaf green.
Green plant cells contain. What?
Green plant cells contain chloroplasts, organelles that undergo photosynthesis. The chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a green pigment that captures energy from the sun. The chlorophyll is what makes the plant green.
Is a animal cell green?
Animal cells are not green because they don't have chlorophyll but plant cell are green
