The amount of sunlight plants gets the different pigments will show. When the amount of sunlight decreases the pigment carotenoid will start to show. It all depends on the amount of sunlight the plant gets. ]]> 2021-10-25 21:11:07 UTC https://padlet.com/1056040/n72zdxpi7caswbo6/wish/1843018318 1056040 https://padlet.com/1056040/n72zdxpi7caswbo6/wish/1845980852 If there’s no sun then there’s no need for chlorophyll (green pigment) to work and so the other pigments take over maybe carotenoid (yellow pigment) maybe anthocyanins (blue pigment) depending on the tree type etc]]> 2021-10-26 18:37:54 UTC https://padlet.com/1056040/n72zdxpi7caswbo6/wish/1845980852 10561201 https://padlet.com/1056040/n72zdxpi7caswbo6/wish/1846230113  is the most important of the three. Without chlorophyll in the leaves, trees would not be able to use sunlight to produce food and life for animals and humans.

Carotenoids are found in well-known fruits and vegetables. Corn, carrots and bananas are just a few of the many plants colored by carotenoids and important in the ecosystem.

Anthocyanins add color to plants like blueberries, red apples, cherries, strawberries, and others.
