Chlorophyll molecules are the most abundant pigments in plants that are responsible for collecting light for photosynthesis. Whi
ch of the following statements are true? The two main forms of chlorophyll are chlorophyll a and b. These molecules resemble the protoporphyrins in hemoglobin and myoglobin, except these contain Fe+2 rather than Mg+2. They require the presence of accessory pigments such as beta-carotene and lutein in order to function. They absorb light in the blue and red region of the visible spectrum, which is why they appear green.
The two types of chlorophyll are chlorophyll A and B.
Explanation:
Chlorophyll is the green pigments present in chloroplast (organelles) that is found in plants which is used for photosynthesis by reacting with carbon dioxide and water to produce carbohydrates. The two types of chlorophyll are; chlorophyii A and chlorophyll B.
Chlorophyll A is the primary photosynthetic pigment that absorb energy from blue- violet light and orange red lights wavelengths.
Chlorophyll B is the accessory pigment to receive energy and transmit it to chlorophyll A. Chlorophyll B absorbs energy from green lights wavelengths.
The offspring gets half of the required chromosomes from each parent. Human parents would give 23 chromosomes to their child as 23 + 23 = 46 chromosomes.
