Chlorophyll is one of the most important color pigments related to photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy by synthesizing some organic compounds. Chlorophyll actually exists in all organisms that can create photosynthesis, including green plants, prokaryotic blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) and eukaryotic algae. Chlorophyll absorbs energy from light, which is then used to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates. Chlorophyll is the main pigment for photosynthesis in plants. It is a family of lipid-containing pigments located in the thylakoid membrane. Chlorophyll absorbs most of the red and purple light but reflects green light, so chlorophyll appears green, and it plays a central role in the light absorption of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is a magnesium porphyrin compound, including chlorophyll a, b, c, d, f, prochlorophyll and bacterial chlorophyll, etc. Chlorophyll is not very stable and will be decomposed by light, acid, a...
