Does chlorophyll primarily use green light as the source of energy for photosynthesis?

No, chlorophyll uses almost all light except green light. The reason it looks green to us is because it is absorbing all light except green and reflecting the green, which is why it looks green to us.

What is the primary energy source for plants?
Photosynthesis - primarily consisting of sunlight
What wavelengths of visible light can plants use as a source of energy?
Most of the visible light spectrum except green wavelengths is absorbed by the chlorophyll molecule and is usable in photosynthesis as a source of energy for plants.
What is the source of energy for photosynthesis?
The Source of energy for photosynthesis is sunlight.
Where does the energy for photosynthesis come from and what part of the plant pigments are involved in photosynthesis?
The energy for photosynthesis comes from respiration. The plant takes in oxygen and uses it for energy with in its cells. The chloroplast have a green substance called chlorophyll which absorbes the light needed for photosynthesis. the reaction happens there. Unfortunately the previous answer is not quite right. The ultimate source of energy for photosynthesis is sunlight. Plants convert the light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, which they can then use as a source of energy in their cells. Energy is released from glucose by respiration.
What is the enegry source for Photosynthesis?
the energy source for Photosynthesis is light.
The energy source in photosynthesis is?
the enrgy source in photosynthesis is?
What is the relationship between Solar radiation and photosynthesis?
the energy source is sun. Photosynthesis need sun as a energy source.
What is the source of energy in photosynthesis?
Light energy
Which of these is the source of energy for photosynthesis?
Light energy
What is the main energy sorce for photosynthesis?
Sunlight is the main energy source for photosynthesis.
What is the purpose of sunlight for photosynthesis?
It is the energy source. It is using as the energy source.
What type of organism uses chemical energy to produce food?
It is producers (plants) which use photosynthesis to not only gain energy, but it is their source of food too. The chlorophyll (what makes plants green) in the chloroplasts allow it to commence this function and turn sunlight into energy.
