Yes, chlorophyll is important in the production of sugars, mainly sucrose known as photosynthate, as it is the product of photosynthesis. There are several types of chlorophyll, chlorophyll 'a' being the most important, as it is the molecule which makes photosynthesis possible. It passes on its energized electrons (excited to a new energy level by solar energy) to other molecules, which will manufacture sugars.

Is sunlight necessary to produce chlorophyll?
The production of chlorophyll is done chemically. Sunlight or artificial light energy is needed for the functioning of chlorophyll.
What are the raw materials needed for sugar production in plants?
Sugar and oxygen
What causes the production of food using light?
It is called photosynthesis. Chlorophyll,water,CO2 are needed
Why are there several chloroplast in plant cell?
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the chemical needed for photosynthesis - using energy from the sun with carbon dioxide to make sugar.
Give two ways a plant uses sugar?
Glucose or sugar is produced through photosynthesis in plants. Plants use glucose to make cellulose, enzymes, and chlorophyll. Sugar is also needed by plants for respiration.
What are the materials needed for the production of bagels?
yeast, flour, baking powder,salt,and sugar
Which process is needed for chlorophyll to work?
Photosynthesis is the process needed for chlorophyll to work. Chlorophyll is a chemical inside a plant which gives plants their green color.
What is the primary pigment needed for photosynthesis?
chlorophyll because it is the the pigment that captures the suns energy and turns it in to glucose which is a sugar that the plants use for food
Which statement correctly explains why chlorophyll production decreased in the seedlings kept in the closet?
Lack of sunlight altered the expression of the gene for chlorophyll production.
Why are pigments such as chlorophyll needed?
Chlorophyll is needed in plants because without it they would be unable to produce their own food.
What is the relationship between photosynthesis and chlorophyll?
Chlorophyll is the pigment needed in order to undergo photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is what absorbs the light.
What pigment is needed for photosisythesis?
chlorophyll
