What is green pigment that absorbs solar energy and is important in photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll is the green pigment which is stored in chloroplasts. This pigment captures the light and gives the chloroplast the green color when looked at under a microscope. Plants also have accessory pigments that absorb different ranges of light. There are pigments in the some species to turn themselves black to attract more light.


Which structure in a plant cell contains pigment that absorbs energy from sunlight to form sugar molecules?

The structure in a plant cell that contains pigment to absorb energy from sunlight is the chloroplast. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, the green pigment responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis. This process converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar) and oxygen, utilizing the absorbed sunlight.

Carbon is used in?

lots of things. Graphite, used as pencil lead, is a form of carbon. Coal is a form of carbon, burned for heat. Diamonds are also a form of carbon, used both for decorative and for industrial purposes (such as polishing granite). And if we include compounds which are made partially of carbon, then we have all of biochemistry. Human life, or any form of life that we know of, cannot exist without the carbon atom. Even Star Trek refers to humans as a "carbon-based life form".
