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>

Chlorophyll is a part of plants that makes food like sugars and starches in order for the plant to survive. The green pigmentation that it has comes from absorbing the red and blue light hues in the surrounding areas to reflect it back as green as blue and red make green.

A gas that does not obey ideal gas law are described as non ideal in behaviour. Gases that are most susceptible to non ideal behaviour are those that have attractive and repulsive forces among their molecules and whose particles have volume. Gases that exhibit non ideal behaviour has compressiblity factor ratio that deviate from 1.

Airida [17]
In the medical profession, understanding the body position, direction and planes creates a common ground for the professionals to communicate in their work. For instance, if a nurse write down a medical note concerning a patient, the doctor will know exactly the part of the body that the nurse is referring to in her notes. It also makes it easy for doctors and nurses to diagnose the parts of the body where their patients are having problems. Thus, knowledge of human anatomy provides uniformity and precision in structures identification.
