∙ 9y agoChlorophyll b is very similar to chlorophyll a in structure and is blue green in color. Like chlorophyll a. It occurs in all plants, green algae and some bacteria. Plants usually contain about half as much chlorophyll b as they do chlorophyll a. Carotenoids (a orange pigment) are a group of accessory pigments which occur in all photosynthetic organisms.There are others: xanthophylls e.g. zeaxanthin (a red pigment) which absorbs red light, phycoerythrin (a red pigment) and phycocyanin (a blue pigment).

Who can photosynthesis?
People cannot photosynthesis... in Autumn when tree leaves turn different colors so that is photosynthesis (In Autumn, the chlorophyll pigments break down and reveal the presence of accessory pigments)
What is the main photopigment utilized by plants during photosynthesis?
The main photo-pigment utilized by plants during photosynthesis is chlorophyll a.However,there are other photo pigments such as chlorophyll b and accessory photo pigments like Beta-carotene, and xanthophylls.
What catches sunlight during photosynthesis?
Photo systems embedded on the thylakoid membranes catches light. photo systems are of two type PSII and PSI. photo systems consists of chlorophyll and accessory pigments. these catch the sunlight for the process of photosynthesis.
Are photosynthetic pigments and accessory pigments the same?
Photosynthetic pigments yes
What color are accessory pigments?
Accessory pigments come in various colors. They can be green, red, brown, orange, and yellow depending on the class they are in. There are three classes of accessory pigments.
How do you do photosynthesis?
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.
What specific wavelengths do the accessory pigments absorb and why is it important to photosynthesis?
blue and red
What major 2 and accessory 4 pigments are necessary for Photosynthesis to be carried out?
a-z

What is the role of carotenoids in a photosytem?
Carotenoids are colored pigments found in plant cells such as in brown algae, in carrots and more. They are accessory pigments which do not do photosynthesis. They transmit energetic to chlorophyll for the process of photosynthesis.
Give an example of accessory pigment?
beta-carotene, or carotenoid pigments are important to photosynthesis anthocyanins, which are red/purple pigments, are important in stress responses.
Lab 4 AP Bio Plant Pigments and Photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is a light reaction that happen in the chloroplast by wavelenght types
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.
What are 2 pigments that are found in chloroplast?
The major components are chlorophyll (with two varieties, A and B), where photosynthesis takes place, and, as accessory pigments, carotenoids which are linear polyenes (such as beta-carotene) that function to fill in the absorption spectra of the where chlorophylls do not absorb strongly.
How do accessory pigments differ from chlorophyll a?
Accessory Pigments absorb energy that chlorophyll a does not absorb.
What is the main photopigment utilized by plants during photosynthesis?
The main photo-pigment utilized by plants during photosynthesis is chlorophyll a.However,there are other photo pigments such as chlorophyll b and accessory photo pigments like Beta-carotene, and xanthophylls.
What does Plants use pigments to collect or trap?
Mainly chlorophyll a, but also, other accessory pigments like chlorophyll b.
