In leaves, the carotenoids are usually masked by the chlorophylls. In the autumn, as the quantity of chlorophyll in the leaf declines, the carotenoids become visible and produce the yellows and reds of autumn foliage.
what is the relationship between pigments and chlorophyll plants gather the sun's energy with light-absorbing molecules called pigments. The plants' principal pigment is chlorophyll.

Within the thylakoid membranes
Chlorophyll A, Chlorophyll B, and Carotenoids
The three types of pigments found in a plant are chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoids (mainly carotene). Chlorophyll a (the main pigment) absorbs blue-green light, chlorophyll b absorbs yellow-green light, and carotene absorbs yellow-orange light.
chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, carotenoids
Carotenoids.
carotenoids
Carotenoids are mostly yellow-red-orange-brown in colour, chlorophyll is green. Carotenoids serve two main purposes in plants - protection from exces sunlight (a bit like sun-screen), and they can absord some sunlight which they then transfer to chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absords sunlight and is involved in photosynthesis.
Chlorophyll, carotenoids, pheophytins and xanthophylls
chloroplast contain pigments like - chlorophyll a. chlorophyll b, carotenoids and xanthophylls
Chlorophyll is the pigment needed in order to undergo photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is what absorbs the light.
