Solution

The correct option is B Chlorophyll
Chlorophyll makes plants green. Chlorophyll is located in a plant’s chloroplasts, which are tiny structures in a plant’s cells. It is basically a group of green pigments used by organisms that convert sunlight into energy via photosynthesis. Without this energy, plants would be unable to initiate the process of photosynthesis, which converts water and carbon dioxide into starches that plants can use for food.
