What else can I help you with?
What are the organelles that use sunlight to produce food in the process of photosynthesis?
They are the chloroplasts. They carry out photosynthesis
What structure does the chloroplast contain that is responsible for photosynthesis?
Chlorophylls, in the thylakoid membranes, and the stroma of chloroplasts.
Why is a green pigment needed for photosynthesis?
To absorb light energy. They are called chlorophylls
Which substance is a green pigment in chloroplasts that absorbs energy for photo system?
Chlorophyll
How is the sun's energy transfer to chemical energy?
That take place in chlorophylls. Process is called photosynthesis
What color is the main chemical plants use during photosynthesis called?
chlorophylls a green substance
How many kinds of pigments are there in green leaves?
There are two main pigments found in green leaves: chlorophylls and carotenoids. Chlorophylls are responsible for the green color in leaves and are essential for photosynthesis. Carotenoids help capture light energy for photosynthesis and can appear yellow, orange, or red in color.
What pigments do plants use tocarry out photosynthesis?
Main one is chlorophylls. Few other secondary are used too
Are carotenoids used during photosynthesis?
It's an accessory pigment - used to capture more light and send it to the photosynthesis reactions.They are secondary pigments.They absorb energy and direct them to chlorophylls
Explain why the chlorophylls are well named?
Chlorophylls are well named because "chloro-" means green, which accurately describes their green color. These pigments are responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis and are abundant in plants, giving them their characteristic green color.
Describe the role of chlorophylls in the biochemical pathways of phathways of photosynthesis?
Chlorophylls are essential pigments found in chloroplasts that capture light energy during photosynthesis. They absorb specific wavelengths of light and transfer that energy to other molecules to drive the production of ATP and NADPH, which are used in the Calvin cycle to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. Overall, chlorophylls play a crucial role in converting light energy into chemical energy within plants.
What do plants have these other pigments besides chlorophyll?
That is for efficient photosynthesis. More energy can be absorbed
