Why do dry leaves burn faster than green leaves leaves?

=The huge bonfire which burns with huge bursts of flames and later on smokes for hours making breathing difficult for hours in the surrounding area.==Furthermore there are strong winds in summers and the ash left behind is blown away further polluting the atmosphere.==The point is we have to change this mind set of burning trash. It surely is the easiest and the cheapest way out in the short run. And the trash might belong to you and you might think you are the best judge of disposing it off. We have to relegate the idea of burning trash to the dust bins of history.=

Are all leafs green?

No; leaves get their green pigment from chlorophyl, but not all plants depend primarily on chlorophyl and other pigments are present. These colors don't inhibit photosynthesis and are present along with green, but they are 'louder' (meaning you see the red but not green, for example). So short answer--no :). The colors from a leaf normally is red, brown , green, pink , purple

Wh y are most producers green in color?

Chloroplasts in the leaves contain Chlorophyll which is used by plants to produce food and Oxygen through Photosynthesis Edited answer: When sunlight (or any short of light for that reason) falls on the leaves containing chlorophyll, it reflects the green spectrum of light. Therefore, all chlorophyll containing plants (being producers) are green in color.

What must a plant do before it can be ready for photosynthesis?

For plants in general the answer is rather obvious.. plants need to get chlorophyll in contact with light. usually in the form of leaves but in general any green part of plants get their green pigment from chlorophyll and is therefore also photosynthetic... for angiosperms (seeded plants) the plant must grow from the seed to the sun.. it's energy stores from the seed are contained in cotyledons which look similar to leaves but they usually shrivel up and die before maturity. plants can grow in total darkness until the energy stores in the cotyledons are used up. so in short for angiosperms they have to be able to grow to the light to get energy before the initial seed energy stored in the cotyledons is used up.
