What green colored chemical is removed from the chloroplasts in leaves causing the leaves to lose their green color in fall?
The green colored chemical removed from chloroplasts in leaves in fall is chlorophyll. As chlorophyll breaks down, the other pigments present in the leaves become more visible, leading to the variety of colors seen in autumn foliage.
Which part of a green plant would lose the most chloroplasts as summer turns to fall?
The leaves of a green plant would typically lose the most chloroplasts as summer turns to fall. This is because chloroplasts are primarily located in the mesophyll cells of leaves, which are responsible for photosynthesis. As the days get shorter and temperatures drop in the fall, leaves begin to senesce and chloroplasts degrade or are broken down.
Are there leaves that have no green on them?
sure. There are leaves which do not have any green in them. There are Orange and Red leaves
Which part of a green plant shows the greatest decrease in chloroplasts in the fall of the year?
The Leaf
What gradually shuts down the leaves in plants at summers end?
The leaves gradually turn from green to oranges, reds, and yellows at the end of summer because of the chloroplasts in the leaves. Chloroplasts keep the leaves green in the summer because there is so much sunlight in the summertime, and as the sunlight gets less in the fall time, the chloroplasts get weaker and the leaves turn red, orange, and yellow.
Is photosynthesis different in leaves that are not green?
yes because the leaves that arent green do not contain chloroplasts so the photosynthesis will definitely be different.
Does a magnolia have ever-green leaves?
No, it drops its leaves in winter. BTW no leaves are ever-green: they all fall off sometime. But some trees of bushes are evergreens. They remain green in winter.
Why does the green in leaves vanish?
In the fall when the plant stops making chlorophyll.

Why are the fall colors not green?
The leaves are dead because the tree quits feeding food to them so they fall off, thats why they are not green because they are dead
Why does leaves turn so colorful in the fall and in the spring they are just plain green?
because the leaves get really old
Why leaves appear green in photosynthesis?
The pigment responsible for photosynthesis (Chlorophyll) reflects the green wave length of sunlight when light fall on the leaf. That is why leaves appear green in the presence of light.
Why do leaves of deciduous forest fall in the autum?
The tree eventually shuts down chlorophyll (green) production in the fall
What colors are leaves at the beginning of fall?

What season would you see the most trees with green leaves?
I would say summer, because in spring, the leaves are just starting to grow. In fall, the leaves change color and fall off. In winter there are no leaves. In summer the leaves have all grown back and are prospering.
