Answer:

Yes, these leaves can also carry out the process of photosynthesis because they contain chlorophyll. The large amount of red, brown and violet pigment mask the green colour of chlorophyll in these leaves.

Heat a plant leaf in boiling water for 30 seconds (this kills the leaf, stopping any chemical reactions) add the leaf to boiling ethanol in a water bath for a few minutes (the boiling ethanol dissolves the chlorophyll and removes the green colour from the leaf - it turns white so it is easy to see the change in colour)
