Answer:

<em>Chlorophyll is a green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis. It's molecule contains a magnesium atom held in a porphyrin ring. The reason that chlorophyll is green is because it absorbs other colors of light such as red and blue, so in a way the green light is reflected out since the pigment does not absorb it. Hope this helps! Have a blessed day!</em>
