What happens to the chlorophyll when the energy from the sun is trapped?

When the energy from the sun is trapped by chlorophyll, it excites electrons within the chlorophyll molecules. These excited electrons are then used to fuel the process of photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen.


Why do plants respond to some colours and not others?

Plants respond to different colors of light based on the absorption spectra of the pigments they contain, particularly chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs light most efficiently in the blue and red regions of the spectrum for photosynthesis. Other colors are not absorbed as effectively or may even be reflected, which is why plants appear green to us. Different colors of light can also trigger different physiological responses in plants, such as flowering or phototropism.

Why do some leaves have two colors on them?

Leaves have different pigment molecules that are necessary for the process of photosynthesis. The pigment molecules reflect different colored wavelengths from the sun. For example Chlorophyll reflects green wavelengths. The reflected wavelengths reach eyes and cause the leaf to be different colors.
