उत्तर

The reason why is chlorophyll-a called an essential pigment is as follows:

  • For photosynthesis of plants, chlorophyll-a is the primary pigment.
  • Chlorophyll-a is considered the most essential photosynthetic pigment because, in the case of the conversion of light energy to chemical energy, it is directly involved.
  • From wavelengths of orange-red and green-yellow lights, most energy is absorbed by it.
  • All other pigments are considered accessory pigments.
