How are pigments involved in the photosynthesis process?
The pigments are responsible for capturing the light energy from the sun and converting it to chemical energy. This is the first step of photosynthesis, so the pigments are responsible for initiating photosynthesis.
Where does the energy for photosynthesis come from and what part of the plant pigments are involved in photosynthesis?
The energy for photosynthesis comes from respiration. The plant takes in oxygen and uses it for energy with in its cells. The chloroplast have a green substance called chlorophyll which absorbes the light needed for photosynthesis. the reaction happens there. Unfortunately the previous answer is not quite right. The ultimate source of energy for photosynthesis is sunlight. Plants convert the light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, which they can then use as a source of energy in their cells. Energy is released from glucose by respiration.
What is a reactant in the general photosynthesis equation?
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants manufacture their food. The reactants involved in this process are carbon dioxide, water and light energy.
What is the source of energy for photosynthesis?
The Source of energy for photosynthesis is sunlight.
What type of reaction is involved in many of the chemical reactions of photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 6H2O (+ light energy) C6H12O6 + 6O2
What is the Green organelle involved in energy production and photosynthesis?
The chloroplast.
What is involved in photosynthesis by capturing energy from sunlight to make energy-rich food?
Chloroplasts.
what are the different types of plant tissues involved in photosynthesis?
Palisde and spongy parenchyma both are invoved in photosynthesis.
What groups of molecules are involved in photosynthesis and the trapping of energy?
It is about pigments. they are absorbers of light.

Can some types of bacteria can make their own energy through photosynthesis?
yes
Is the energy involved in photosynthesis and cellular respiration recycled?
Solar energy is transformed into other types of energy once it is in the biological cycle. The only way it may be released is as heat energy into space. Sunlight powers photosynthesis, and the ultimate function of this stored chemical energy is as mechanical energy and waste heat.The energy that plants store may be used in cellular respiration, but never goes back to the plant. The physical materials are mostly recycled (water, carbon dioxide, and trace nutrients) because cellular respiration undoes the chemical changes of photosynthesis.

Why is sun light important to photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is an endothermic process: it requires energy in order for the reactions involved to occur. The sunlight provides this energy. This is a really simplistic answer; if you want more details, consult any good biochemistry text.
What is involved in the movement of matter and energy between reservoirs?
Plants, animals, and photosynthesis are all a part of this process.
What is a reactant in the general photosynthesis equation?
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants manufacture their food. The reactants involved in this process are carbon dioxide, water and light energy.
Specifically what types of energy produced during photosynthesis are useful to animals as food?
Chemical energy is produced. Actually light energy is converted
