Do variegated leaves contain starch?
Yes, variegated leaves contain starch. Starch is produced in the chloroplasts of plant cells during photosynthesis, so all green parts of a variegated leaf will have starch. However, the amount of starch present may vary depending on the extent of variegation and the amount of chlorophyll in the leaf.
What do you call the green coloring pigment in plants?
The green pigment found in photosynthetic plants is called chlorophyll; it is responsible for converting sunlight, carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars through the process of photosynthesis.Chlorophyll is found in structures called chloroplastswithin the cells of the plant; Chloroplasts are concentrated in the palisade cells in the mesophyll tissue layer of the leaves and stems of most plants.Chlorophyll uses predominantly light in the red and blue portions of the visible light spectrum for photosynthesis, reflecting more green light and giving plants their typical green coloring.Pigment is the natural colouring matter of animal or plant tissue.There are three basic pigments in green plants:ChlorophyllCarotenoidPhycobilin
What are facts about plant pigments?
Plant pigments are responsible for the colors we see in fruits, flowers, and leaves. They include chlorophyll (green pigment), carotenoids (orange, yellow, and red pigments), and anthocyanins (red, purple, and blue pigments). These pigments play crucial roles in photosynthesis, attracting pollinators, and protecting plants from environmental stress.
Which region of the visible spectrum is not absorbed well by chlorophyll?
Green light is not absorbed well by chlorophyll, which is why plants appear green to our eyes. This is because chlorophyll absorbs more efficiently in the blue and red regions of the visible spectrum.
How are plants and animals different from each other?
They are not different, accept for the fact that one is in a plant and one is in an animal.Their size

Does green tea perfume contain actual green tea?
Green tea perfume does not contain green tea, but in fact uses a large variety of synthetic substances to create the smell.
Why did plants choose to be green?
plants are green because they absorb all light wavelengths other than green light. The green light bounces off the surface instead, and into an observer's eyes, causing them to see the plant as being green. Not all leaves are green, and some plants, like Japanese Maples, get the same amount of energy from sunlight as a plant with green leaves. This causes me to think that the fact that leaves are green is sort of arbitrary. The color of the leaves in fact has nothing to do with photosynthesis (as someone who answered this question previously suggested), which is merely the process by which energy absorbed from sunlight is used to convert carbon dioxide into sugars. energy is stored in the bonds of these sugars.
Why is green the poorest color to give plants energy to grow?
Most plants are green and the thing responsible for them being green is their chlorophyll (which is what is also responsible for photosynthesis). The fact that they are green means that they're not using that wavelength frequency. Red would be the best wavelength to get plants to photosynthezise and grow.
If you were an alien how would you describe human?
It depends if I was a green martian invader I would say that I was surprised at their ignorance, lack of green pigment, and ability to breath oxygen. I would also think less of them due to the fact that they aren't as advanced as me
Does light color grow plants?
Plants, in fact, do grow faster under certain colors of light. The reason for this is that chloroplasts can only absorb certain wave lengths of light because of the pigments they contain. There are 2 photo systems in plants called photo system I and II. PS I absorbs light on the wavelength of 700nm while PS II absorbs 680nm because of their utilization of chlorophyll A and B Green plants will grow SLOWER or not at all under green light. Basically, green is the only brand of light that the plant's chloroplasts doesn't use. That is why it is the only colour reflected from the leaf, and is what we see.
What does your environment contain?
Just about everything. In fact everything from plants , animals ,microbes to rocks ,hills water falls etc & the list goes on.

Does plants contain a cell wall?
Most living things are built from cells, and that means both animals and plants. In fact the word "cellulose" comes from the name of the substance found in the cell walls of plants.
What color of sunlight plants use for photosynthesis?
Carotenoids are a group of accessory pigments which occur in all photosynthetic organisms. They contain about forty carbon atoms, often without oxygen atoms and are fat soluble. They are chemically unrelated to chlorophyll and consist of rings connected by long chains of carbon atoms. They absorb light maximally at wavelengths between 460 and 550 nm and are therefore yellow, red or orange in colour as they reflect the wavelengths in this part of the spectrum. Carotenoids are found in all photosynthetic organisms.
what are two examples of a fact?
incorect but blood does run through your body but leaves.
