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 are polyisoprenoids?
polyisoprenoid is a straight polymer formed by condensation of monomers that is isoprene....they are also called as isoterpenes...e.g rubber,xanthophylls etc
Which pigments did you identify from the spinach leaf?
Chlorophyll, carotenoids, pheophytins and xanthophylls
What is the polarity of xanthophylls?
Xanthophylls are polar molecules due to the presence of hydroxyl (-OH) groups in their chemical structure. These hydroxyl groups make xanthophylls soluble in polar solvents like water.
What pigments are found in chloroplasts besides choorophyll?
chloroplast contain pigments like - chlorophyll a. chlorophyll b, carotenoids and xanthophylls
How do you soluble the chlorophyll in acetone?

What colour is xanthophyll pigment?

What can dissolve chlorophyll?
Water is a bent, polar compound and possesses the ability to Hydrogen bond. As a result, it has unique solubility characteristics as a solvent and functions differently at different temperatures.
Why are some leaves not green?
Some leaves are not green because they contain more of pigments other than chlorophyll, like xanthophylls or carotinoids which give them yellow,red,orange colours.
What plant pigment are involved in photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll, carotenoids, phycobilins and xanthophylls are the pigments involved in photosynthesis .Chlorophyll is the name used for several related pigments found in plants, they are used in photosynthesis.
What are the kinds of chloropyll and other pigments?
The main types of chlorophyll in plants are chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b. Other pigments found in plants include carotenoids (such as beta-carotene), anthocyanins, and xanthophylls. These pigments play various roles in photosynthesis and light absorption.
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.
