Chlorophyll a
What else can I help you with?
What are two accessory pigments for photosynthesis?
Chloraphyll A and B
Which photosynthetic pigment is found in bacteria but is lacking in all other photosynthetic organisms?
Another important photosynthetic bacterial group-Halobacteria thrive in very salty environments, such as the Dead Sea and the Great Salt Lake. Halobacteria are unique in that they perform photosynthesis without chlorophyll. Instead, their photosynthetic pigments are bacteriorhodopsin and halorhodopsin. These pigments are similar to sensory rhodopsin, the pigment used by humans and other animals for vision. Bacteriorhodopsin and halorhodopsin are embedded in the cell membranes of halobacteria and each pigment consists of retinal, a vitamin-A derivative, bound to a protein. Irradiation of these pigments causes a structural change in their retinal. This is referred to as photoisomerization. Retinal photoisomerization leads to the synthesis of ATP. Halobacteria have two additional rhodopsins, sensory rhodopsin-I and sensory rhodopsin-II. These compounds regulate phototaxis, the directional movement in response to light.
Is grass a eukaryote?
It is a eukaryote because all plant cells are eukaryotes.
What do thylakoids contain?
The thylakoid membrane of green plants contains 6 different pigments: Carotene - an orange pigment Xanthophyll - a yellow pigment Phaeophytin a - a gray-brown pigment Phaeophytin b - a yellow-brown pigment Chlorophyll a - a blue-green pigment Chlorophyll b- a yellow-green pigment Chlorophyll a is the most common of these 6 pigments (present in all photosynthetic plants).
What is all true eukaryote?
They all have a nucleus.
What are two accessory pigments for photosynthesis?
Chloraphyll A and B
What do all photosynthetic organisms have in common?
All photosynthetic organisms have chlorophyll or a similar pigment that captures light energy, allowing them to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. They also have specialized structures, such as chloroplasts, where photosynthesis takes place. Additionally, they require sunlight to power the photosynthetic process.
What type of pigments are usually found in all the leaves extracts?
Photosynthetic pigment consisting of chlorophyll a & b, carotene and xanthophyll.
What pigments do thylakoids?
The thylakoid membrane of green plants contains 6 different pigments: Carotene - an orange pigment Xanthophyll - a yellow pigment Phaeophytin a - a gray-brown pigment Phaeophytin b - a yellow-brown pigment Chlorophyll a - a blue-green pigment Chlorophyll b- a yellow-green pigment Chlorophyll a is the most common of these 6 pigments (present in all photosynthetic plants).

What is the photosynthetic pigment in plants?
There are a four main photosynthetic pigments in green plants. Chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, carotene and xanthophyll. These all absorb different areas of the spectrum therefore allowing the plant maximum absorption of light from the sun, and hence photosynthesise effectively.
Does an amimal have or prokaryote or eukaryote?
The Kingdom Animalia is all eukaryote.
In what part of a plant cell does photosynthesis occur?
in which part of a plant cell does photosynthesis occur
Is a koala bear a eukaryote or a procreate?
Eukaryote, like all animals.
Is grass a eukaryote?
It is a eukaryote because all plant cells are eukaryotes.

1 State an advantage having more than one type of photosynthetic pigment gives a plant?
pigment is any substance that absorbs light. The color of the pigment comes from the wavelengths of light reflected (in other words, those not absorbed). Chlorophyll, the green pigment common to all photosynthetic cells, absorbs all wavelengths of visible light except green, which it reflects to be detected by our eyes. Black pigments absorb all of the wavelengths that strike them. White pigments/lighter colors reflect all or almost all of the energy striking them. Pigments have their own characteristic absorption spectra, the absorption pattern of a given pigment. the Light Dependent Processes (Light Reactions) light strikes chlorophyll a in such a way as to excite electrons to a higher energy state. BTW this is a yahoo answers response so give the other person credit. :)
