Definition. noun. A yellow-green chlorophyll pigment which occurs only in plants and green algae. It functions as a light harvesting pigment that pass on the light excitation to chlorophyll a. It absorbs well at wavelength of 450-500 nm and 600-650 nm of the electromagnetic spectrum.
A pigment is any substance that absorbs light. Chlorophyll, the pigment that makes leaves green, absorbs light in the violet and blue wavelengths and also in the red because it reflects green light, it appears green. Different pigments absorb light energy at different wavelengths.The absorption pattern of a pigment is known as the absorption spectrum.The absorption spectrum of chlorophyll is between 400 nm and 700 nm. This portion of the spectrum is known as photosynthetically active region (PAR).hlorophyll b absorbs a different wavelength of light other than that absorbed by chlorophyll a. On absorbing light, it becomes excited and transfer its to chlorophyll a molecule. Carotenoids like chlorophyll are embedded in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts.
