The color of anything is either the color of the light that is reflected from it, or the light that is transmitted through it. The other colors in white light are absorbed. So, since we see leaves as green whether in reflected light or when light shines through them, green is the color which is NOT absorbed.
Chlorophyll does not absorb the color green. For this reason, the leaves of many plants appear green, as most other colours of light are absorbed (and therefore, are not reflected, and cannot be seen). When a plant dies, its leaves usually change colour, as the chlorophyll is no longer absorbing light.
Chlorophyll does not absorb green. The green light is reflected, which is why plants look green!
Well, since the pigment chlorophyll is green we know it does not absorb the color green as to see the color it must be reflected from the material it strikes with light and not absorbed.
Apparently, most plants don't absorb much green,
especially their leaves.
Green Colored Plants appear that way because they are reflecting Green colored light. (They absorb all light except green light)
Green plants to do absorb green light.
Chlorophyll absorbs every color of the sunlight except for green. It is green and it cannot absorb its own color.
chlorophyll- and their green because that is the wavelength of light that the pigment reflects the most
Variegated leafed plant is useful for demonstrating that chlorophyll is needed for photosynthesis because variegated leaf is a plant which uses chlorophyll to absorb light so it can get its color
no
The cells that are in the plants are called plant cells and within those plant cells there is a green pigment called chlorophyll in the chloroplast which gives the plants their green color. Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and helps the plant with photosynthesis.

chlorophyll is composed of many lights that we see in a rainbow. chlorophyll a is when it absorbs all light except for the color red. chlorophyll b is the same as chlorophyll a but instead of not absorbing the color red it refuses to absorb the color blue.
Chlorophyll absorbs every color of the sunlight except for green. It is green and it cannot absorb its own color.
chlorophyll- and their green because that is the wavelength of light that the pigment reflects the most
Chlorophyll a and b absorb BLUE-VIOLET and RED wavelengths of light best.
the colored compounds in them are chloroplast and chlorophyll that are colored green and absorb light for the process of photosynthesis....
Accessory Pigments absorb energy that chlorophyll a does not absorb.
Chlorophyll does not absorb the color green. For this reason, the leaves of many plants appear green, as most other colours of light are absorbed (and therefore, are not reflected, and cannot be seen). When a plant dies, its leaves usually change colour, as the chlorophyll is no longer absorbing light.
Blue and Red -Mastering Biology 4th edition
carotenoids: absorb blue- violet chlorophyll: absorb red and also blue-violet reflect red-yellow reflect green
chlorophyll reflects green in color because it absorbs red color than any other at higher wavelengths. as green is the complimentary color of red it appears green in color
A type of plastids called chloroplasts absorb the light.
