The Chlorophylltraps light energy and convertsitintochemicalenergyfor the formationofcarbohydrates and theirsubsequentstorage.
Chlorophyllis a green pigmentfound in almostallplants, algae, and cyanobacteria. Itsnameisderivedfrom the Greekwordschloros (green) and phyllon (leaf).
The light intensityvarying on the rate ofphotosyntesis,The water plantsnedd more energy The plantabsorbes the carbondioxides and emitsoxygen. The photosyntesisis a verycomplicatedchemicalreaction
