Why chlorophyll gives green colour to the plants leaves
  • 1 answers

Rajan Kumar Pasi 5 years, 7 months ago


Chlorophylls absorb light most strongly in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse_sky_radiation" title="Diffuse sky radiation">blue portion</a> of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum" title="Electromagnetic spectrum">electromagnetic spectrum</a> as well as the red portion. Conversely, it is a poor absorber of green and near-green portions of the spectrum, which it reflects, producing the green color of chlorophyll-containing tissues.
