the yellow pigment is called: xanthophyll
the orange pigment is called: carotenoid
Yellow-orange pigments in chloroplasts are carotenoids, such as beta-carotene and xanthophylls. They play a role in photosynthesis by absorbing certain wavelengths of light that chlorophyll cannot absorb, helping to protect the chlorophyll and assist in light absorption. These pigments also provide plants with their characteristic yellow, orange, and red colors.
The technical names for the pigments in a leaf are carotenoids for orange and yellow pigments, and anthocyanins for red pigments. These pigments play a role in absorbing light for photosynthesis and protecting the plant from damage.
Chloroplast
They are carotene and xanthophyll. They are secondary pigments
Accessory pigments in plants can be various colors such as red, yellow, or orange. These pigments, like carotenoids and anthocyanins, help plants absorb different wavelengths of light for photosynthesis and also provide protection against excess light and stress.
The yellow pigment in plants is Xenthophyll.

The color that results from mixing red and yellow pigments is orange.
ice cream
The colors red and yellow combine to make the color orange.

Carotenoid pigments
Carotenoid pigments
carotenoids are orange. These are abundant in carrots. xanthophylls are yellow. These are found in all leaves but are often hidden.
The technical names for the pigments in a leaf are carotenoids for orange and yellow pigments, and anthocyanins for red pigments. These pigments play a role in absorbing light for photosynthesis and protecting the plant from damage.
Carotenoid pigments are responsible for giving yellow and orange colors to plants by absorbing light in the blue and green wavelengths and reflecting yellow and orange light.
