RossChloroplasts are green because they contain a pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs blue and red light from the sun and reflects green light, giving chloroplasts their green color. This process is essential for photosynthesis, the conversion of light energy into chemical energy in plants.

What are green round objects found inside plant cells?
Chloroplasts provide plants with their green color. Chloroplasts contain the pigment chlorophyll which makes them appear green. Chloroplasts are the organelles which perform photosynthesis.
Green plant cells contain. What?
Green plant cells contain chloroplasts, organelles that undergo photosynthesis. The chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a green pigment that captures energy from the sun. The chlorophyll is what makes the plant green.
What is the green pigment found within the grana that makes the chloroplasts and the leaves green?
The green pigment found within the grana of chloroplasts is chlorophyll. It is responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis.
What part of a cell captures the sun energy and makes plants green?
The organelle is chloroplasts Chloroplasts also contain the chemical chlorophyll, which gives leaves their green color and help in capturing the sunlight and converting it to glucose for the plant.
What are chloroplasts and what is their role?
Those are the particles that makes nature green. They put oxygen and sunlight in glycogen
