definition - (not to be at all confused with chlorine or chloramines) Chlorophyll is the green pigmented substance in plant cells that is integral to photosynthesis.

The green pigment in plants. Responsible for trapping light energy for photosynthesis.

A green pigment found in plant cells that is essential to photosynthesis and is formed only in the presence of light.

 The green pigment in plants that absorb energy from light and turn it into sugars from the water and carbon dioxide taken in.

The green pigment in most plants which combines water (in sap) and carbon dioxide from the air in the presence of sunlight to produce sugars to feed the plant, during which process oxygen is given off as a waste product. If a plant loses its natural green colour and begins to turn yellow, it is said to bechlorotic. This condition is often caused by [..]

biochemistry - the green pigment in most plants

The primary class of light-harvesting molecule found in the antenna systems of photosynthetic organisms, together with carotenoids.Although appearing in many types, the general architecture of a chlorophyll molecule is that of an almost flat square, about 1 nm along its side, with a phytol tail or side-chain. At the centre of the square is a magnes [..]
