iN FACT THEY ARE NOT.

Photosynthesis is a process by which plants get energy. therefore it is called the food making process for the plants(trees, whatever). Chlorophyll is a substance which facilitates this process, present in the leaves of the plants. This is what gives the leaves green color.

To make food, plants need air (CO2), water and sunlight. Air can be absorbed by the leaves. Water can be absorbed by the leaves (vapor) as well as roots. Sunlight is trapped using the chlorophyll. This helps the trees get energy.

Thus, chlorophyll is a substance present in the leaves. Photosynthesis is the process. The output of the process is Oxygen, which the tree emits after the process is completed. THEREFORE, it is an urge to protect these trees as they take in carbon dioxide and emit oxygen, during the process of photosynthesis.

How is photosynthesis and clorophyll alike?

Chlorophyll is used in photosynthesis. Chloroplasts is the organelle inside of the plant cell where photosynthesis occurs. Chlorophyll is the green pigment in chloroplasts that gives the plants their green color. They are alike because they are both in plant cells and both help plant cells to do what they do best.


Photosynthesis chloroplast chlorophyll how do they go together?

Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, chlorophyll performs photosynthesis.


What molecule absorb sunlight for photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight in photosynthesis.


Why chlorophyll acts as a catalyst in photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll is NOT really a catalyst. The presence of chlorophyll in the absence of light does not catalyze photosynthesis. Chlorophyll plays a part in photosynthesis, it captures light energy.


Does photosynthesis requires chlorophyll?

Chlorophyll is an essential factor for the process of Photosynthesizing. Without Chlorophyll, Photosynthesis cannot happen.


What is the relationship between photosynthesis and chlorophyll?

Chlorophyll is the pigment needed in order to undergo photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is what absorbs the light.


Does photosynthesis depend on chlorophyll?

Yes, photosynthesis depends on chlorophyll as it is the pigment that captures light energy from the sun and converts it into chemical energy to drive the process of photosynthesis in plants. Without chlorophyll, plants would not be able to carry out photosynthesis efficiently.


Is chlorophyll necessary for photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll is needed for Photosynthesis because it is the main ingredient. (sorry it is a bit vauge)


Does chlorophyll capture energy from the sun for photosynthesis?

Yes! The chlorophyll captures the sun's energy and uses it for photosynthesis.


What is the host for photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll!


Does photosynthesis require chlorophyll in order to occur?

Yes, photosynthesis requires chlorophyll in order to occur. Chlorophyll is a pigment found in the chloroplasts of plant cells that absorbs light energy needed for the process of photosynthesis.


Why do plants need chlorophyll to care out photosynthesis?

chlorophyll is the primary pigment. It is much needed for photosynthesis.
