Question

Chloroplast contains chlorophyll. What does chlorophyll do?

Answer 1

Explanation:

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

Chlorophyll, the primary pigment used in photosynthesis, reflects green light and absorbs red and blue light most strongly. In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll. ... These other pigments may help channel light energy to chlorophyll A or protect the cell from photo-damage.
