- The magnesium center uniquely defines the structure as a chlorophyll molecule.
Chlorophyll is vital for photosynthesis, which allows plants to absorb energy from light.
- Chlorophyll molecules are arranged in and around photosystems that are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
- In these complexes, chlorophyll serves three functions.
