Answer: The leaves which are green in colour performs photosynthesis.

Explanation:

  • Green plants or plants having green leaves have the ability to produce their own food. They achieve this by using a green pigment made of chlorophyll in a process known as photosynthesis.
  • A pigment is a chemical that has a specific colour and, depending on that colour, may absorb light at various wavelengths. Chlorophyll stands out among the many different kinds of pigments found in nature because it gives plants the ability to absorb the energy they require to develop tissues.
  • Chlorophyll is found in the plant's microscopic chloroplasts, which are found in its cells. Here is where photosynthesis occurs. Because phytoplankton contains chlorophyll, large phytoplankton concentrations can cause water to seem green. Phytoplankton are microscopic floating plants that serve as the foundation of the entire marine food chain.
  • The purpose of chlorophyll in a plant is to absorb light, frequently sunlight. The absorbed light energy is transferred to two different kinds of energy-storing molecules.
  • For the purpose of producing new leaves and other plant parts, plants combine glucose with nutrients derived from the soil.
  • As chlorophyll does not absorb the green wavelengths of white light, it is the substance that gives plants their green color. The plant appears green because it reflects that particular light wavelength.
  • Autotrophs are plants that produce their own sustenance through photosynthesis. Heterotrophs are animals that consume both plants and other living things.
  • Chlorophyll can be viewed as a foundation for all life on Earth because photosynthesis is the starting point of food webs in every type of ecosystem, from terrestrial to marine.
