Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in plants and algae. Chlorophyll is also an important biomolecule that is critical in photosynthesis, which allows plants to obtain energy from light. The function of chlorophyll is to absorb light and transfer that light energy to a specific chlorophyll pair in the reaction center of the two photosystems.
