Chlorophyll
A
Is the substance that gives plant leaves their green color.
B
Small membrane bound bodies inside the cell that contain the green chlorophyll pigment.
C
Conversion of Carbon Dioxide.
D
Most important life-sustaining process.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chlorophyll gives plants their green color because it does not absorb the green wavelengths of white light. That particular light wavelength is reflected from the plant, so it appears green. Plants that use photosynthesis to make their own food are called autotrophs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chlorophyll a is the chief pigment associated with photosynthesis. As we can see, chlorophyll a absorbs red and blue wavelengths to a higher extent. Green light isn’t rejected but rate of photosynthesis is more with red and blue wavelengths of light.

Detailed explanation-3: -The leaves possess green colour pigments on their surface which are known as chlorophyll. These pigments are responsible for the process of photosynthesis, the process by which the green plants prepare their own food.
