In addition to chlorophyll,other pigments, principally yellow and orange carotenoids, as well asother forms of chlorophyll, are also present in green plants. Thesemolecules absorb light and then pass the energy to the chlorophyll a.Accessory pigments, like the carotenoids, enable the plants to use more ofthe light than is trapped by chlorophyll a alone. 2024-10-04 10:00:56.0
