DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Inside the plant cell are small organelles called chloroplasts, which store the energy of sunlight. Within the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast is a light-absorbing pigment called chlorophyll, which is responsible for giving the plant its green color.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plants gather the sun’s energy with light-absorbing molecules called pigments.

Detailed explanation-3: -All photosynthetic organisms contain a pigment called chlorophyll a, which humans see as the common green color associated with plants. Chlorophyll a absorbs wavelengths from either end of the visible spectrum (blue and red), but not from green.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chlorophyll gives plants their characteristic green color and is essential for photosynthesis because it helps convert solar energy into chemical energy. Chlorophyll absorbs energy during photosynthesis and converts water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbohydrates.
