What are analogies for chromoplasts?
A chloroplast is what turns a plant green.
What does the chloroplast function in the plant cell?
Its function is to carry photosynthesis.It produces food for plant.
What is the name of the green substance found in leaves?
The green substance in the leaves of plants is a pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is an essential pigment by virtue of which plants are able to carry out photosynthesis. Chlorophyll pigment traps solar energy and converts it into chemical energy. There are many types of chlorophylls. The most important chlorophyll is chlorophyll a, which is the reaction centre of a photosystem.
Which part of a green plant would lose the most chloroplasts as summer turns to fall?
The leaves lose chloroplasts as summer turns to fall.
If the animal cell had chloroplast it would still have it same color?
no animal cells dont have chloroplast, chloroplast is only in plant cells and turns the color of the plant green.
What is chlorophyll and how does a leaf use it?
chlorophyl is a green pigment and it absorbs light and turns it into energy
What does the chorolpaslt do?
A chloroplast produces green pigment called chlorophyll, which turns sunglight into energy that a plant can use. Only certain parts of plants (which are green) have cloroplasts. Roots do not because they cannot reach the sunlight, therefore it has no use for it.
What in a plant cell makes the plant green and contain chlorophipyll?
Chlorophyll, located in the chloroplast, turns a plant green

Plants are green because they contain?
Plants look green because inside the leaves there are chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are green and they are there to help make energy for the plant using the sun to make glucose (energy). In autumn/fall the leaves dont need the chloroplasts because there is less sun so the plant turns red/yellow/brown. A plant also contains xanthophyll and other things that are coloured yellow/red/brown, the xanthophyll is usually covered up by the chloroplast. So when there is no chloroplasts the Xanthophyll can change the leaf colour.
Homarus americanus is usually olive green or greenish brown but it turns red when you cook it as a pigment called astaxanthin is freed What animal is this?
Lobster
How can you turn yellow grass green?
Other than by painting it yellow, all you have to do is cover it up, and the green chlorophyll pigment will fade. Grass under temporary swimming pools usually turns yellow and may begin to ferment (rot). Grass that stores its pigment during the winter usually turns brown (tan) rather than yellow.
Why do katydids turn pink?
