How does it benefit a plant to have Multiple pigments?
different pigments have different wavelengths of light which it can absorb... so helps to increase the range of wavelengths of light that can be absorbed... also helps to avoid photo oxidation of the main plant pigment..

People cannot perform photosynthesis, in Autumn when tree leaves change colors that is what photosynthesis is. In Autumn, the chlorophyll pigments break down and reveal the presence of accessory pigments.
Why do different pigments have different colors?
Different pigments absorb light of different wavelengths.
What are examples of accessory pigments for photosynthesis?
Some examples are carotenoids and phychobiliprotein. Chlorophyll is not an accessory pigment. Accessory pigments are pigments which work alongside Chlorophyll a in photosynthesis, such as carotene.
How can you have several colors in one eye?
You have different pigments in the eye.
Why do you have different skin colors?
Everybody has different pigments, which gives us our skin, hair and eye colors.
List five pigments that are responsible for plant colors?
Chlorophyll (a, b, c, d, e, f), carotenoids (carotenes, xanthophyll, fucoxanthin), and phycobilins (phycoerytherin, phycocyanin) are the major groups of pigments that are associated with photosynthesis. Plants mostly use chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, carotenes, and xanthophyll as their photosynthetic pigments.
How do flowers get their colors?
Flowers get their color from pigments such as anthocyanins and carotenoids. Some naturally evolved to have colors. Others were hyridized by humans to have colors different than the original parent plants.
What is the difference between primary pigments and primary colors?
Primary pigments (magenta, cyan and yellow) are produced when the primary colors of light (red, blue and green) are added through color addition (process of mixing lights). Primary pigments are complementary of the primary colors so they are different.
What are primary pigments?
Primary pigments are the pigments that make up primary colors in a medium such as paint. The primary colors are red, yellow, and blue.
When an object is in the sunlight why do you see its color?

color subtraction
