chlorophyll being green, is absorbing the relatively low energy red light and reflecting the higher energy green.
But even this sort of analysis depends on the properties of the incoming light. Chlorophyll would be better in the redder light of some stars and poorer in the bluer light of others.
If a plant were to have no cholorophyll, plant cells would not have any Photosystems (Neither I nor II) that allow photophosphorylation nor photolysis to take place. This would mean that no Respiration or Carbohydrates (Sugars) would be created within a plant. Therefore the plant would not be able to sustain itself and would simply die.
if there was no chlorophyll in plants they would die because they woldn't be able to photosynthesis and couldn't get energy from the sun. i don't know exactly why but oh well :) :) :) :)
huh? are you asking "what if the only pigment contained in plants was chlorophyll" then the answer would probably be they'd be completely green
Chlorophyll makes plants green so without chlorophyll all the plants in this world would be coulorfull liked mixed up coulors.
If a plant looses much of its chlorophyll, the normal rate of photosynthesis will be affected. Chlorophyll plays an important role in photolysis of water to begin with light reactions.
plant can not produce its own food
In simple words a plant absorbs sunlight through their leaves.The leaf cells (mainly palisade cells in the palisade layer in the mesophyll layer) contain organelles called chloroplasts which have a pigment called chlorophyll. That chlorophyll absorbs light energy from the sun and convert it into chemical energy.
no only plants have chloroplasts or chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is helpful to plants because it gives them their green color. If a plant is green, it means they are healthy. SO it is pretty important. Hence the term cholorplasts which are the cells in the plant that helps them with chlorophyll.
this is not a trick question it just needs thought a dark green leaf would have more chlorophyll because chlorophyll is the substance that causes the leaf to turn green
If animal cells contained chlorophyll, animals would be able to turn sunlight into their own food in just the way that plants do. They would not longer have to eat, and the for chain would cease to be.
Chlorophyll is a type of pigment which is found in certain plants. Some plants which contain chlorophyll include algae and plants. Chlorophyll is green in color and accounts for most of the green found in plants.
The plant would lose its color and eventually start to wither.
Chlorophyll is a pigment that makes photosynthesis in the plant and without photosynthesis there would be no glucose, oxygen, and water from the plant and the plant would ultimately die
A chlorophyll supplement would include blue-green algae, spirulina, or chorella. These contain high concentrations of the green pigment found in plants, chlorophyll. This is a blood-building supplement as the chemical structure of chlorophyll is similar to hemoglobin.
They will die if they will die we will also die.

The plants would not be able to produce ATP because they would not be able to undergo any type of ATP production. ATP is necessary to undergo metabolic processes.
that would be sybiotic plants
Chlorophyll is the green pigment in plants that absorbs and uses sunlight to manufacture simple sugars through the process of photosynthesis.
They would be whichever color corresponds to their dominant photosynthetic pigment. Because chlorophyll absorbs green light the least plants containing chlorophyll appear green. Some plants are red, orange, and even purple because they have a photosynthetic pigment that dominates over chlorophyll.
Plants contain chlorophyll within their thylakoids, which are found within the chloroplasts. Chlorophylls are pigmented light capturing devices that are stacked closely together. They act like solar gathering antenna.
Almost all plants use photosynthesis, even some without chlorophyll. But green plants would not be green if they were not using chlorophyll-based photosynthesis.
