The organelle is chloroplasts Chloroplasts also contain the chemical chlorophyll, which gives leaves their green color and help in capturing the sunlight and converting it to glucose for the plant.

Green plant cells contain. What?
Green plant cells contain chloroplasts, organelles that undergo photosynthesis. The chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a green pigment that captures energy from the sun. The chlorophyll is what makes the plant green.
Which organelle carries out photosynthesis converting light into chemical energy?
The chloroplast, commonly found in the Cells of green plants and algae, uses the structures called grana and stroma to accomplish this.
How do organisms capture and store energy?
The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct. Found from google.com
What captures light and makes food for plant cells?
A wide variety of plants including trees, shrubs, and flowers collect energy from the sun or as I like to call it "The Ultimate Energy Source". The plant then takes in C2O or Carbon Dioxide (produced every time a person takes a breath) and releases Oxygen. And as everyone knows, Plants as well as Animals require Water or H2O.
What makes plants green in photosynthesis?
Cloraphyll
What is the name of the pigment in plants that captures this energy?
Leaves contains Green pigment called chlorophyll which contains chloroplast (cells) that captures sunlight sunlight and the plant makes it food. :)
What organism makes its own food using solar energy?
Green plants.
What des chloroplast do?
It converts sunlight to energy for the cell. It also makes all plants that are green green.
Green plant cells contain. What?
Green plant cells contain chloroplasts, organelles that undergo photosynthesis. The chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a green pigment that captures energy from the sun. The chlorophyll is what makes the plant green.
Photosynthesis works how?
Photosynthesis can happen in plants because they have chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the pigment that makes plants green. Chlorophyll captures the Sun's energy and uses it to make sugars out of carbon dioxide from the air and water. The sugars fuel a plant's roots, stems, and leaves so the plant can grow.
What animal makes food by using energy from the sun?
No animals, only green plants and algae.
When plants use sunlight to make food the energy of the sunlight is?
it is called photosynthesis and the plant uses the green pigment (which makes most plants' leaves green) is called chlorophyll.
What do green plants have that other plants do not?
green plants have chlorophyll and that's what makes them different
Which organelle carries out photosynthesis converting light into chemical energy?
The chloroplast, commonly found in the Cells of green plants and algae, uses the structures called grana and stroma to accomplish this.
What does clorophyll do in plants?
it makes the plants green
What makes the plants leaves green?
Chlorophyll is what makes leaves green. It is a pigment that allows plants to photosynthesize - i.e. it allows for the absorption energy from light. Chlorophyll appears green because it doesn't absorb this colour of the spectrum very well; that it, it reflects green light more than other colours.
