Your analysis of your evidence is the most important part of your response essay. It is important that you do not simply restate your evidence or your thesis when constructing analysis. Instead, you should look to explain how the author's technique or use of a character, for example, adds to the theme conveyed.
Land plants (and plants in the ocean, called algae) have a lot of chlorophyll-a pigment because it is essential to photosynthesis, but they also have other pigments, called accessory pigments, that help them absorb light.
A plant needs sunlight, carbon dioxide, minerals and water to make food. A green substance in plants called chlorophyll traps the energy from the Sun needed to make food. Chlorophyll is mostly found in leaves, inside plastids, which are inside the leaf cells.The leaf can be thought of as a food factory. green substance in plants called chlorophyll traps the energy from the Sun needed to make food.
