Question
6/10 what is the function of chlorophyll in photosynthesis? absorbing sunlight releasing oxygen producing carbon dioxide
Chlorophyll is a pigment in plants. In photosynthesis, its main role is to absorb sunlight. Sunlight is essential for the light - dependent reactions of photosynthesis. These reactions convert light energy into chemical energy (ATP and NADPH). The other options are incorrect: oxygen is released as a by - product (not the function of chlorophyll itself in this context), and carbon dioxide is taken in (not produced by chlorophyll in photosynthesis).
