The process of photosynthesis starts when the sunlight strikes the photosystem I pigments which excites these electrons. This energy is passed from molecule to molecule until it reaches the chloroplast molecule which is called P700. This molecule is so named since it only absorbs the light in the red region of the spectrum that has the wavelength of 700 nanometers. The photosynthesis process starts at this point where the chlorophyll pigment absorbs the sunlight and begins the process of converting this light to energy.

Hence the option that states that pigment molecules absorbs the light energy begins the process of photosynthesis.

Fibrous

Explanation:

Proteins are assembled according to their functions. Fibrous proteins usually provide protection and support to cells. They are made up of polypeptides that have elongated shape and assembles in large cables or threads. These proteins are differentiated from globular proteins by their globular form and repeated units of amino acids.

For example the fibrous proteins involved in horns, hair and nails is alpha-keratin.  Elastin found in skin and ligament is also a fibrous protein. Collagen includes collagen fibrils that have tensile strength of steel is also a fibrous protein found in cartilages and bones.
