Chlorophyll
leaf
The green color in plant cells comes from chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs sunlight and plays a key role in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll absorbs blue and red light, reflecting green light, giving plants their characteristic green color.
Cloroplast which also has clorophyll in it which makes the colour of the plant 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.
The substance that gives leaves their green color is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a pigment found in the chloroplasts of plant cells and is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy.
