Light is first captured by the enzyme P680 in photosystem II. Two electrons are absorbed from the incoming light energy and these move P680 to the excited state commonly written as P680*. For more information, look up "Z Scheme" this should clear up more about the entire process of light absorption and transformation into chemical energy in photosynthesis.
Which molecule in plant cells first captures the radiant energy from sunlight?
glucose
carbon dioxide
chlorophyll
adenosine triphosphate
your mom drove this thang man
chlorophyll
Chlorophyll
Glucose
clorophyll
The parts of the single-celled algae that are responsible for capturing energy are chloroplasts. Chloroplasts have to be there in order for cells to capture energy.
Any part of the plant that is green will have cells that contain chloroplasts which are responsible for capturing light and converting it to chemical energy.
Chlorophyll is a molecule found in chloroplast. When chlorophyll absorbs light, much of the energy is transferred directly to electrons in the chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy levels of these electrons. These high energy electrons make photosynthesis work.
•Producers create organic molecules (protein, lipids, and carbohydrates) by capturing light energy and combining the captured energy with inorganic molecules.

It is the part of a molecule that is responsible for its color. When a molecule absorbs a wavelength of visible light and reflects or transmits others, this is when the molecule's color will appear.
it is about the sun. It is capturing sun light.
Photosynthesis is the capturing of the light's energy and converting it into chemical potential energy, so it comes from the sun.

pigments (original answer) Technically whoever wrote pigments is right, BUT it is the chloroplasts in the Thykaloid Membranes that capture the light and the process goes from there.
From solar taps. Plants can also use solar energy.chlorophyll
Photosystem I and Photosystem II are two protein-based complexes found in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. They are involved in the process of photosynthesis, capturing and converting light energy into chemical energy. Photosystem II functions first in the light reactions of photosynthesis, while Photosystem I follows to further harness light energy and produce ATP and NADPH, which are vital for the synthesis of sugars.
