What are the molecules in plant cells that absorb light energy?
Chlorophyll.
Is chlorophyll energized in photosynthesis?
Yes, chlorophyll is energized in photosynthesis. When chlorophyll absorbs light energy, it becomes excited and enters an energized state. This energized chlorophyll is then able to transfer the absorbed energy to other molecules involved in the process of photosynthesis, which ultimately leads to the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
How do plants get there green color from what chemical?
Plant leaves contain chlorophyll in its chloroplasts in mesophyll cells which make plant leaves green. Chlorophyll helps in photosynthesis by absorbing solar radiation for photolysis of water molecules.
Why do plant leaves turn yellow?
The chlorophyll molecules slowly dies as the temperature slowly lowers. Which causes other colours of the accessory and other pigments to become visible.
Where do find the pigment chlorophyll within a plant cell?
chlorophyll a and carotenoids are the main pigments found in almost all plant and other type of pigment are also present
Where are chlorophyll molecules located within plant cells?
chlorophyll molecules are located in the thylakoid membrane
What type of molecule is in a leaf?
Chlorophyll molecules are specifically arranged in and around photosystems that are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. In these complexes, chlorophyll serves two primary functions. The function of the vast majority of chlorophyll (up to several hundred molecules per photosystem) is to absorb light and transfer that light energy by resonance energy transfer to a specific chlorophyll pair in the reaction center of the photosystems.

What happens when a photon from sunlight strikes a chlorophyll a molecule?
When a photon strikes a pigment molecule such as chlorophyll, the energy from the photon is passed to the chlorophyll. This energy then continues to pass between molecules until it hits the reaction center, where the reaction of photosynthesis' glucose creation occurs.
Where do find the pigment chlorophyll within a plant cell?
chlorophyll a and carotenoids are the main pigments found in almost all plant and other type of pigment are also present
Why don't chlorophyll molecules run out of electrons?
Because the plant is bring water out of the soil to " crack " for its electrons ( among other things ) to replenish the electrons in the pigment chlorophyll.
