<em>leaves appear green because the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll is present in the leaves .. when sun light or any other light falls on leaves ,this chlorophyll absorbs all the other colours of light and only reflect green ..so our eye can only detect this green colour and it seems that leaves or chlorophyll is green but actually the matter is with absorption spectrum..
