What would happen if plants do not contain chlorophyll?

Answer 1

chlorophyll being green, is absorbing the relatively low energy red light and reflecting the higher energy green.

But even this sort of analysis depends on the properties of the incoming light. Chlorophyll would be better in the redder light of some stars and poorer in the bluer light of others.

Answer 2

If a plant were to have no cholorophyll, plant cells would not have any Photosystems (Neither I nor II) that allow photophosphorylation nor photolysis to take place. This would mean that no Respiration or Carbohydrates (Sugars) would be created within a plant. Therefore the plant would not be able to sustain itself and would simply die.

Answer 3

if there was no chlorophyll in plants they would die because they woldn't be able to photosynthesis and couldn't get energy from the sun. i don't know exactly why but oh well :) :) :) :)

Answer 4

Plants rely on chlorophyll to undergo photosynthesis, the process by which they convert sunlight into energy. Without chlorophyll, plants would not be able to produce their own food and would eventually die due to lack of energy. Additionally, chlorophyll is responsible for giving plants their green color, so plants without chlorophyll would likely have a different appearance.

Answer 5

huh? are you asking "what if the only pigment contained in plants was chlorophyll" then the answer would probably be they'd be completely green

Answer 6

Chlorophyll makes plants green so without chlorophyll all the plants in this world would be coulorfull liked mixed up coulors.

Answer 7

If a plant looses much of its chlorophyll, the normal rate of photosynthesis will be affected. Chlorophyll plays an important role in photolysis of water to begin with light reactions.

Answer 8

plant can not produce its own food
