why are some plants greener than others?



why are some plants greener than others?..

Answer / Meenakshi Yadav

Plants appear green due to the presence of chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis. Some plants have more chlorophyll or other photosynthetic pigments like xanthophylls and carotenes which contribute to their color. For example, spinach has a higher concentration of chlorophyll, making it appear greener compared to lettuce.
