What is the green pigment that is found in plants?
Chlorophyll in chloroplasts is responsible for the green pigment. The chlorophyll reflects green light.
What is the dominant photosynthetic pigment of algae?
Accessory pigments are light-absorbing compounds, found in photosynthetic organisms, that work in conjunction with chlorophyll a. They include other forms of this pigment, such as chlorophyll b in green algal and higher plant antennae, while other algae may containchlorophyll c or d.
The primary light-gathering pigment in photosynthetic bacteria and plants is what?
Chlorophyll is the primary pigment in plants. It gives the green color to plants. Its main function is to help in the synthesis of carbohydrates from carbon-di-oxide by the process of photosynthesis.
What heppens when light strikes green plant pigments?
electrons become excited
What in the pigment is found in chloroplasts?

What is the green pigment that is found in plants?
Chlorophyll in chloroplasts is responsible for the green pigment. The chlorophyll reflects green light.
What pigment is found inside a thylakoid?
There are photosynthetic pigments.Mainly chlorophyll,xanthophyll,carotene etc.
What are the yellow and orange pigments found in carrots?
The pigment is known as carotene, which is an orange photosynthetic pigment, which just means it is a pigment found in chloroplasts responsible for catching light energy used in photosynthesis.
What is the primary pigment in photosynthesis?
The primary photosynthetic pigment that is found in plants is Chlorophyll A. Chlorophyll A is responsible for giving the plants a green appearance.
What is the dominant photosynthetic pigment of algae?
Accessory pigments are light-absorbing compounds, found in photosynthetic organisms, that work in conjunction with chlorophyll a. They include other forms of this pigment, such as chlorophyll b in green algal and higher plant antennae, while other algae may containchlorophyll c or d.
What happens when light strikes green light pigments?
The green pigment found in photosynthetic plants is called chlorophyll; it is responsible for converting sunlight.
What type of pigments are usually found in all the leaves extracts?
Photosynthetic pigment consisting of chlorophyll a & b, carotene and xanthophyll.
The primary light-gathering pigment in photosynthetic bacteria and plants is what?
Chlorophyll is the primary pigment in plants. It gives the green color to plants. Its main function is to help in the synthesis of carbohydrates from carbon-di-oxide by the process of photosynthesis.
What is the function of the chlorophyll?
A green pigment found in the chloroplasts of plants algae and some bacteria. Chlorophyll is technically what allows a photosynthetic organism to attain energy from photons (light).
Do green algae have photosynthetic pigments?
Any plant which is Green in colour has Chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the pigment found in Chloroplasts which makes the Green Colour on Algae as well as helps the Algae to Photosynthesize.
What heppens when light strikes green plant pigments?
