DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Sunlight is absorbed by leaves of the plant. They use the absorbed sunlight during photosynthesis to make their own food.

Detailed explanation-2: -In most plants, the leaves are the main food factories. They capture the sun’s energy with the help of chlorophyll in the leaf cells. The chlorophyll traps and packages the energy from the light of the sun in a process called photosynthesis. Leaves usually have a large surface so they can collect the most sunlight.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chlorophyll is the only light absorbing pigment in the leaves. Q. The pigment called Chlorophyll present in Chloroplasts helps in photosynthesis by absorbing sunlight and transforming it into chemical energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant cells have a light-absorbing pigment called chlorophyll. Chloroplasts possess chlorophyll within the thylakoid pigment. At the time of photosynthesis, chlorophyll A absorbs solar energy. Then it traps the energy by converting it into chemical energy.
