Question

5.
What are chlorophyll ? Mention its role in photosynthesis.​

Answer 1

Chlorophyll's job in a plant is to absorb light—usually sunlight. The energy absorbed from light is transferred to two kinds of energy-storing molecules. Through photosynthesis, the plant uses the stored energy to convert carbon dioxide (absorbed from the air) and water into glucose, a type of sugar.

Answer 2

Chrolophyll is the green pigment that we see on the leaves. Its role in photosynthesis is it helps in making the food for the plant.
