chloropyll is in plants it is the plants pigment it helps the pant absorb more sunlight it is found in the stem as well as the leaf (green parts) as sweetners added to some products chloropyll is active in a plant only as long as there is enough sunlight to support it production (good Question)

Do leaves give food to flowers?

Not exactly food, but the chlorophyll within them absorbs sunlight through photosynthesis, and then provides energy through respiration.


What are some examples of chlorophyll?

Some examples of chlorophyll are chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, chlorophyll c1, and chlorophyll c2. These are the most common types of chlorophyll found in plants and algae. Chlorophyll gives plants their green color and is essential for photosynthesis.


What are the different types of chlorophyll What is chlorophyll a and b?

the chlorophyll A and chlorophyll B


What type of chlorophyll does a reaction contain?

chlorophyll a Chlorophyll A


What is two type of chlorophyll?

There is chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b.


Why doesn't the action spectrum for photosynthesis exactly match the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a?

The action spectrum for photosynthesis doesn't exactly match the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a because other pigments, like chlorophyll b and carotenoids, also play a role in capturing light energy for photosynthesis. These additional pigments have absorption peaks at different wavelengths, contributing to the overall light absorption by the plant. As a result, the combined absorption spectra of all pigments involved in photosynthesis do not perfectly align with the action spectrum.


What functional group is different in the identical pigments of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b?

The functional group that differs between chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b is the aldehyde group on chlorophyll b, which replaces the methyl group on chlorophyll a at the C7 position of the chlorophyll molecules.


What is the difference in the different types of chlorophyll?

There are chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b. in chlorophyll a there is more energy required than in chlorophyll b. chlorophyll a have an absorption peak at 700 nm in contrast to the 680nm of chlorophyll b. chlorophyll a creates a more greener pigment whereas the chlorophyll b has a more yellow appearance of leaves in the fall. there are also other pigments like carotenes which produce the red in autumn.


Does milk have chlorophyll in it?

It has been found that milk contains chlorophyllic compounds in very low concentrations. Not exactly chlorophyll a or b, but probably breakdown products from these. Milk also contains porphyrins such as protoporphyrin and hematoporphyrins. All these compounds contribute to the photooxidation in milk since they are very light sensitive.


Which is more polar- chlorophyll a or b?

Chlorophyll a is more polar than chlorophyll b due to the presence of a methyl group in chlorophyll b that increases its overall hydrophobicity, making it less polar compared to chlorophyll a. Consequently, chlorophyll a has a higher affinity for polar solvents and is the primary photosynthetic pigment in plants.


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 roll does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis and where is chlorophyll found?

Chlorophyll is found inside the leaves. Chlorophyll captures the sun's rays and converts them to food.
