What is the name of the green chemical plants use to collect light energy?
Plants use several pigments for photosynthesis. The primarily green pigment is called chlorophyll.
What pigments do plants use to carry out photosynthesis and what do these pigments do specifically for the process?
Chlorophyll a & b, caroten and xanthophyll are photosynthetic pigments used by plants. These pigments capture various wavelengths of solar radiation for energy transformation.
What are the pigments that plants use?
Chlorophyll, they use it for photosynthesis.
Why do plants have pigments other than chlorophyll?
The primary reason that plants have pigments other than chlorophyll is so that they can make the most efficient use of the entire light spectrum as the seasons and amount of light change.
Rhizobium radicicola is a monera that helps plants do what?
Rhizobium radicicola is a moneran that helps plants use Clusters of red pigments on euglenas that helps the organism find sunlight

Pigments like chlorophyll and carotene are molecules that plants use to?
First it is important to note that the color green is given off [as visible light] by plants BECAUSE THEY CANNOT USE IT.
What are the behaviors of a mating flowering plant?
The plants use their pigments from sunlight.
Why do plants use a wide range of pigments for their photosynthetic activity?
Not sure.
What compound do plants use to make glucose molecules?
Green plants use a pigment called chlorophyll to collect sunlight and produce excited electrons that then drive a complex of other proteins to manufacture glucose. Other organisms (mostly microscopic) use other pigments of a variety of different colors in the same way.
Why do plants have pigments other than chlorophyll?
The primary reason that plants have pigments other than chlorophyll is so that they can make the most efficient use of the entire light spectrum as the seasons and amount of light change.
What do plants use to collect light energy?
Chlorophyll and chloroplasts
Do animal cells use chloroplasts to trap the suns energy?
No they do not, only plants do.
Is chlorophyll is necessary for green plants to undergo photosynthesis?
Not entirely. Green plants also use xanthophylls and carotenes as photosynthetic pigments to a small extent.
What pigments do plants use tocarry out photosynthesis?
Main one is chlorophylls. Few other secondary are used too
