Green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy?
Chlorophyll is the green pigment. There is a chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b that are found in green plants. The only difference between Chlorophyll a and b is in its structure. Chlorophyll a has a -CH3 group and b has a -CHO group instead. Also, Chlorophyll is anchored to thylakoid membranes located inside a chloroplast."Chlorophyll" is the green pigment that stores sun energy while the process is called "Photosynthesis"The green pigment that traps light energy from the sun is known as chlorophyll. It is found in plant cells and it uses this trapped energy in the process of photosynthesis.
What 3 things do plants need to photosynthesise?
THE THREE ESENTIAL THINGS NEEDED BY PLANTS FOR PHOTOSYNTHESIS ARE SUNLIGHT, CHLOROPHYLL AND CARBON DIOXIDE. IF ONE OF THE THREE FACTORS IS ABSENT PHOTOSYNTHESIS CANNOT TAKE PLACE(it is also known as black mans principle).
What does plants need to undergo photosynthesis and what are the resulting products of photosynthesis?
The plants obtain the reactants through green color pigments that attract light through chloroplasts. The energy from the sunlight is turned into food through out a complicated process. Or it can be used as energy. The food might be sugars on the leaves leaving available for caterpillars. Once the caterpillar gets it's food a bird will eat it and gets it's energy and the process goes on.
The green chemical in plants which is needed to produce food is?
Chlorophyll found in the organelle called chloroplasts which are specific to producers(living things that make their own energy or "food").
What pigment gives plants their green color?
The green pigment chlorophyll is responsible for the colour of plants.The pigment is found in organelles called chloroplastswhich are found in most plant cells (particularly in the leaves and stems).The pigment is green in colour and reflects green light, giving the plants their green colour.
Do animals have chlorophyll?
Only photosynthesising plants need to produce chlorophyll, because they feed autotrophically i.e. they make their own food, and chlorophyll is used to make plants' food. Animals don't make their own food so have no need for chlorophyll.
Do papaya and tomato plants contain chlorophyll?
I think all living plants contain chlorophyll as they need them to photosynthise to provide energy and food for themselves. Not all living plants contain chlorophyll but papaya & tomato plants certainly contain chlorophyll.
Why do humans need a digestive systembut not in plants?
Plants have chlorophyll that absorbs light in energy. We don't have that chlorophyll. Also plants Producers. Animals are consumers.
Why do green plants need chlorophyll?
To be able to photosynthesise
Do plants need chlorophyll to make food?
Yes.
What chemicals do plants need to make their own?
Chlorophyll
What do plants need from the soil to make proteins?
CHLOROPHYLL
Why do plants need chlorophyll to care out photosynthesis?
chlorophyll is the primary pigment. It is much needed for photosynthesis.
What chemical do plants need to make their own food?
Chlorophyll
What two nutrients do plants need to make chlorophyll?
Phosphorus
Do all plants need chlorophyll?
yes they do.They need it to make food
What do plants need chorphyll?
Plants don't need chlorophyll, they just use it to turn green. like when leaves start to loose their green color in the fall they are actually loosing their chlorophyll.
