Chlorophyll: the pigment that gives plants their green color and allows them to absorb sunlight... more. Chloroplast: a part of a cell found in plants that converts light energy into energy plants can use (sugar). Other living organisms such as algae also have cells that contain chloroplasts. The Story of Chlorophyll and Chloroplasts Round, green chloroplasts fill the middle of a plant cell. Image by Kristian Peters. The Story of Chlorophyll and Chloroplasts Round, green chloroplasts fill the middle of a plant cell. The story of chlorophyll and chloroplasts. 1  Round, green chloroplasts fill the middle of a plant cell. Image by Kristian Peters. 2  This model of a chloroplast shows the stacked thylakoids. The space inside a thylakoid is called a lumen. 3  Plants that lose their leaves in the winter start breaking down chlorophyll in fall. Chlorophyll, a green pigment found in chloroplasts, is an important part of the light-dependent reactions. Chlorophyll soaks up the energy from sunlight. It is also the reason why plants are green. You may remember that colors are different wavelengths of light. Chlorophyll captures red and blue wavelengths of light and reflects the green wavelengths. show/hide words to know. 1  Chlorophyll: the pigment that gives plants their green color and allows them to absorb sunlight... 2  Chloroplast: a part of a cell found in plants that converts light energy into energy plants can use (sugar). Chlorophyll is a green pigment present in plants which facilitate the absorption of light from the sun. It has the ability to convert this light energy into a usable form which is utilized for various processes such as photosynthesis by virtue of which the green plants prepare their own food. Nutritional Value of Chlorophyll. It is a pigment found in plants, which is packed with a range of powerful nutrients. It is a good source of vitamins such as vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin K and beta-carotene. Chloroplasts take the energy from the sunlight and use it to make plant food. The food can be used immediately to give cells energy or it can be stored as sugar or starch. If stored, it can be used later when the plant needs to do work, like grow a new branch or make a flower. Chloroplasts Up Close Inside chloroplasts are special stacks of pancake-shaped structures called thylakoids (Greek thylakos = sack or pouch). show/hide words to know. 1  Chlorophyll: the pigment that gives plants their green color and allows them to absorb sunlight... more. 2  Chloroplast: a part of a cell found in plants that converts light energy into energy plants can use (sugar). Other living organisms such as algae also have cells that contain chloroplasts. Chlorophyll works at molecular and cellular levels and has the ability to regenerate our body. Chlorophyll is rich in live enzymes which helps in cleansing of blood and enhances the ability of the blood to carry more oxygen. Query: how does chlorophyll work
A:
chlorophyll gives plants their green color and allows them to absorb sunlight.
