Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A pigment is a molecule that has a particular color and can absorb light at different wavelengths, depending on the color. There are many different types of pigments in nature, but chlorophyll is unique in its ability to enable plants to absorb the energy they need to build tissues.
Detailed explanation-2: -Pigments are chemical compounds which reflect only certain wavelengths of visible light. This makes them appear “colorful".
