Question

sunlight is most often harnessed by chlorophyll, which is green. Do the plants with red or purple coloured leaves can do photosynthesis? Explain how?​

Answer 1

Answer:

That's life, in a nutshell. All photosynthesizing plants have a pigment molecule called chlorophyll. This molecule absorbs most of the energy from the violet-blue and reddish-orange part of the light spectrum. It does not absorb green, so that's reflected back to our eyes and we see the leaf as green. please mark me as brainliest

Answer 2

Explanation:

• The leaves of purple plants still have chlorophyll which looks green to us.
• So since they have chlorophyll, they can carry out photosynthesis.
• However, some plants have a lot of compounds called anthrocyanins which can be red or purple in color.
