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.
Why do you have eye color?
We have color eyes because Aunt sisters might of had them but they might of past them to you so that is why or it is just your luck to have color eyes.Part of the eyes is Epithelium,Iris Stroma,Cellular
What pigment traps the energy for photosynthesis?
There is a wide range of pigments that are used for photosynthesis. However, chlorophyll is responsible for using obtained light energy to excite electrons to move through the transport chain. Many pigments are only capable of transferring energy to chlorophyll, but they are important because they increase the spectrum of the frequencies of light of which the organism can use to photosynthesize. These pigments are called accessory pigments. For a more detailed explanation of these pigments, view the attached link below.
Why are pigments needed for photosynthesis?
Pigments are needed because they are useful to autotrophs and plants. Pigments are used to capture the sunlight's energy.
Besides chlorophyll what other pigments are found in chloroplasts?
These other pigments are called accessory pigments (red, orange, yellow, brown).
Is there pigments in cellular respiration?
yes, mitochondria
What is an important mineral ion in cytochrome pigments?
Iron, Fe2+
Is chlorophyll needed in cellular respiration?
no. humans respire and they do not have chlorophyll. Respiration is the process of releasing energy from food. To do thi you need to have glucose (from the food) and oxygen. Chlorophyll comes into it because plants need to conduct photosynthesis to get glucose. The chlorophyll is needed for this process to happen.
Which cell organelles function in photosynthesis and respiration?
Photosynthesis involves the chloroplasts, which contain pigments that absorb the sunllight and then transmute them to sugars the plant can use. Cellular respiration takes place in the lysosome, an organelle that contains similar processes. Food energy is converted into energy the animal can use.
What are the most important chloroplasts pigments?
Chlorophyll a is very important.They are in every photosynthetic cell.
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.
Does respiration require pigment molecules?
noGenerally no. But in complex animals,they use pigments for gas transportation. Hemoglobin in animals is an example
What are facts about pigments?
An important fact about plant pigments is that it colors the plant green. It also makes leaves yellow and orange in the fall.
Is respiration endothermic?
Yes, photosynthesis is endothermic. The chlorophyll and pigments in the plant absorb the light energy from the sun's rays, as endothermic reaction is that in which energy is absorbed.
What are facts about plant pigments?
An important fact about plant pigments is that it colors the plant green. It also makes leaves yellow and orange in the fall.
What specific wavelengths do the accessory pigments absorb and why is it important to photosynthesis?
blue and red
Are photosynthetic pigments and accessory pigments the same?
Photosynthetic pigments yes
