Vedclass · Answer

(D) Photosynthetic pigments are classified into two categories: primary pigments and accessory pigments.$1$. Primary Pigment: Chlorophyll-$a$ is the primary pigment because it is directly involved in the light reaction of photosynthesis by converting light energy into chemical energy.$2$. Accessory Pigments: Chlorophyll-$b$,carotenoids,and xanthophylls are accessory pigments. They absorb light energy and transfer it to chlorophyll-$a$,and also protect chlorophyll-$a$ from photo-oxidation.Therefore,chlorophyll-$a$ is not an accessory pigment.
