Chloroplast
What else can I help you with?
Chlorophyll is a green pigment because it absorbs only the green part of the visible light spectrum?
Chlorophyll appears green because it absorbs red and blue light while reflecting green light. This pigment is essential for photosynthesis in plants, allowing them to convert light energy into chemical energy. Its selective absorption of light wavelengths gives plants their characteristic green color.
What part of the single celled algae are responsible for capturing energy?
Chlorophyll is responsible for capturing energy from the sun in all plants
What is a photosystem?
A photosystem is a cluster of pigments and proteins in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts, involved in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. It captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy, which is used to drive the production of ATP and NADPH.
Where do plants store energy from the sun?
Plants perform a vital function for their own survival and as part of the ecosystem, and this is Photosynthesis. During this process, during which plants transform solar light into energy, the energy produced is stored in the leaves and part of the stems.
What captures light and makes food for plant cells?
A wide variety of plants including trees, shrubs, and flowers collect energy from the sun or as I like to call it "The Ultimate Energy Source". The plant then takes in C2O or Carbon Dioxide (produced every time a person takes a breath) and releases Oxygen. And as everyone knows, Plants as well as Animals require Water or H2O.
Which named part absorbs light energy for photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll is the pigment in plant cells that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis.
What is a part of a solar panel that absorbs light and converts it into electrical energy?
The photovoltaic (PV) cells are the part of a solar panel that absorb light energy and convert it into electrical energy through the photoelectric effect. These cells are typically made of silicon and produce an electric current when exposed to sunlight.

The part of solar panel that absorbs light and converts it into electrical energy?
The part of a solar panel that absorbs light and converts it into electrical energy is the photovoltaic cells, also known as solar cells. These cells are made of semiconductor materials that generate an electric current when exposed to sunlight through the photovoltaic effect.
What part of the single celled algae are responsible for capturing energy?
Chlorophyll is responsible for capturing energy from the sun in all plants
The part of a solar panel that absorbs light and converts it in electrical energy?
The part of a solar panel that absorbs light and converts it into electrical energy is called solar cells or photovoltaic cells. These cells are typically made of silicon and generate electricity when sunlight hits them, creating a flow of electrons. This process is what allows solar panels to produce renewable energy.
What part of a plant cell gathers light energy?
The chloroplasts in plant cells gather light energy through a pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs light during photosynthesis, where it is converted into chemical energy used by the plant.
What part of the chlorophyll molecule absorbs light?
The magnesium atom at the center of the chlorophyll molecule is responsible for absorbing light. This magnesium atom interacts with the surrounding nitrogen atoms of the chlorophyll molecule to capture light energy during photosynthesis.
What part of the plant absorbs the light?
the chlorophyll which are in the chloroplasts.
Where in chloroplasts is light energy absorbed?
chloroplast have membrane bound sac like structures piled up on top of each other called thylakoids which have chlorophyll(pigment having "Mg"ion) filled in them, this pigment is primarily responsible for absorption of photons of light
How does energy transfer from the sun to plant to you?
Energy comes from the Sun to Earth - and some of it to plants - via sunlight, which can travel through empty space. Plants store part of the energy they get, and we then get the energy from the plants we eat. We - those who are not strict vegans, that is - also get some of the energy in a more indirect way, by eating animal products (meat, eggs, milk); in this case, the animal gets energy from the plants, and stores part of it, and we get the energy from the animal products.
