chloroplasts
No, plants do not absorb all types of light.
Chloroplasts absorb the light.
why plants appear green.it
pigment molecules absorb light energy
the colored compounds in them are chloroplast and chlorophyll that are colored green and absorb light for the process of photosynthesis....

Plants absorb different wavelengths of light for photosynthesis, but they do not absorb color in the same way humans perceive it. Plants appear green because they reflect green light and absorb other colors for energy production.
They both absorb light from the Sun.
Most terrestrial plants reflect the color green. The photosyntehtic parts of plants tend to absorb the color red.
Plants can absorb light energy from the Sun through a process called phototropism, where they orient their growth in response to the direction of light. This helps them maximize their ability to absorb sunlight for photosynthesis. Additionally, plants can also use specific photoreceptors to detect changes in the quality and quantity of light, which can trigger various growth and developmental responses.
Different plants absorb different colors. Even different parts of plants absorb different colors. The color you see the plant as is the color being reflected rather than absorbed by the plant.
YES. Plants absorb AND reflect green light. Leaves are green due to a compound called chlorophyll. The light absorbed by chlorophyll is used to power photosynthesis, the conversion of light energy into chemical energy. On a relative basis, chlorophyll absorbs more blue and red light, compared to green light; and therefore reflects less red and blue light. As a result, there is more green light than red or blue light reflected, so the chlorophyll containing part of the plant appears green. It is commonly thought that chlorophyll does not absorb green light, but that is a fallacy. A dark green leaf can absorb 90% of the green light impinging on it. In contrast, 95% of the red and blue light may be absorbed.
