<> Pigment:-
Pigments are chemical compounds which reflect only certain wavelengths of visible light. This makes them appear "colorful". Flowers, corals, and even animal skin contain pigments which give them their colors. More important than their reflection of light is the ability of pigments to absorb certain wavelengths.
Pigments are "molecules that absorb specific wavelengths (energies) of light and reflect all others."
Pigments are colored: the color we see is the net effect of all the light reflecting back at us.
<> Types of photosynthesis pigment:-
1. Xanthophyll - a yellow pigment.
2. Phaeophytin a - a gray-brown pigment.
3. Phaeophytin b - a yellow-brownpigment.
4. Chlorophyll a - a blue-greenpigment.
5. Chlorophyll b - a yellow-greenpigment.
<> Importance of photosynthesis pigment:-
Pigments are colorful chemical compounds that reflect light of a specific wavelength and absorb other wavelengths.
Leaves, flowers, coral, and animal skins contain pigments that give them color.
Photosynthesis is a process taking place in plants and can be defined as a conversion of light energy to chemical energy.
It is a process by which green plants produce carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water by the help of chlorophyll (green pigment in plants) in the presence of light energy.
Photosynthesis in plants is dependent upon capturing light energy in the pigment chlorophyll, and in particular chlorophyll a.
This chlorophyll resides mostly in the chloroplast and gives leaves their green color.
The range of light absorption in leaves is extended by some accessory pigment such as the caratinoid, but does not cover the entire visible range - that would make the leaves black.

Answer:
The primary pigment colors are the same as the secondary colors of light. The secondary pigment colors are red, blue, and green—the same as the primary colors of light. The effect of mixing pigments is different from the effect of mixing light.
