Chlorophyll – The Vital Plant Pigment | Biology | ICSE Class 10

🌱 Ever wondered why plants are green? Or how they capture sunlight and turn it into food? The secret lies in a remarkable pigment — Chlorophyll.
In this video, we’ll explore Chlorophyll – The Vital Plant Pigment. You’ll learn what chlorophyll is, where it is located, its composition, how it absorbs light, and why it is essential for photosynthesis. From the structure of chloroplasts to the sensitivity of chlorophyll to light intensity, this lesson uncovers why chlorophyll is truly nature’s solar panel.
Perfect for ICSE Class 10 Biology exam preparation, while also supporting CBSE and State Board learners. This video connects textbook concepts with real-life observations — from green gardens to yellowing leaves — so you understand biology not just for exams, but for life!

📚 What You’ll Learn in This Video
1️⃣ Chlorophyll – The Green Key to Life: Why plants owe their green color to this pigment.
