A molecule that contains atoms enabling it to reflect light is called a pigment.
Chloroplast/ Chlorophyll. Chloroplast is the pigment, Chlorophyll is the actuall chemical that makes it green
The absorption spectrum of pigment is the molecules response to light. The color of the pigment depends on the wavelengths of light the do not absorb.
Because of the nitrogenous bases that absorbs light maximally at 260nm wavelenght
Oxygen is colorless because it does not have any specific pigment or molecular structure that absorbs and emits particular wavelengths of light. As a result, it does not interact with visible light in a way that would cause it to appear as a specific color.
chlorophyll pigment consists of antenna and reaction centres to absorb light energy.there are two regions in this pigment that is-pigment system I which absorbs far red light at 700nm and another is pigment system II which absorbs red light at 680nm.

Chloroplasts contain the green pigment chlorophyll
Pigment is a molecule that absorbs light -Sasha Muy :)

Chlorophyll.
We call it chlorophyll. It is a green pigment.
Chlorophyll is the primary pigment that absorbs sunlight during photosynthesis. It is the pigment that is able to absorb the light energy and convert it into chemical energy by loosing electrons easily when struck by light.
chlorophyll
Pigments absorb certain colors of light, and reflect others. For example, chlorophyll is the pigment in plants which absorbs red and violet light, and relects green. This is why many plants appear green.
