What is the other pigment of photosynthesis?

chlorophyll


What is the main pigment used in photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is when a plant (or other type of cell) uses sunlight to make energy. The chloroplasts are the organelles that capture sunlight, and is also the thing that makes a leaf green. This happens because of the pigment of chlorophyll. (I'm in 8th grade btw) :)


How do organisms capture and store energy?

The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct. Found from google.com

What two effects of pigments found in cyanobacteria?

Some have a blue pigment that helps in photosynthesis. This pigment gives those cyanobacteria a blue tint. Other cyanobacteria have red pigment. Flamingos get their pink color by eating red cyanobacteria. or Cyanobacteria lives in water and these bacteria contain the green pigment chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is important to photosynthesis.


What pigment reflects orange yellow and red and absorbs the other colors to provide energy for photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll reflects red and yellow light.


What are accesory pigments?

In plants, usually pigment is more important in the process of fertilization than any other. Pigment will attract different insects, birds, or other animals which aids in the transport of pollen to other plants for cross fertilization. However, for plants like the venus fly trap, color attracts prey.


Do plants with non-green leaves have chlorophyll and can they carry out photosynthesis?

Plants with non-green leaves have chlorophyll and do carry out the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS. It is just that the chlorophyll is masked by other pigment.


Do yellow leaves photosynthesis?

"So, plants with leaf color other than green perform photosynthesis just like green-leafed plants (if they did not, they would not live). The chlorophyll needed for photosynthesis is masked among the colorful pigmentation."


What is the main photopigment utilized by plants during photosynthesis?

The main photo-pigment utilized by plants during photosynthesis is chlorophyll a.However,there are other photo pigments such as chlorophyll b and accessory photo pigments like Beta-carotene, and xanthophylls.


Can plant survive without chlorophyll?

no plant cant survive without chlorophyll......as chlorophyll act as a medium for the process of photosynthesis in which they use sun light for the production of food(mainly glucose)..as a source of food...during night plant use glucose which they syntheise during day time but some aquatic plant which were present in sea where sunlight cant reach,such plant dont requried chlorophyll ....they use some other source for there energy chlorophyll is the green pigment...
