Where does the energy for photosynthesis come from and what part of the plant pigments are involved in photosynthesis?

The energy for photosynthesis comes from respiration. The plant takes in oxygen and uses it for energy with in its cells. The chloroplast have a green substance called chlorophyll which absorbes the light needed for photosynthesis. the reaction happens there. Unfortunately the previous answer is not quite right. The ultimate source of energy for photosynthesis is sunlight. Plants convert the light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, which they can then use as a source of energy in their cells. Energy is released from glucose by respiration.
