8 Why are leaves GREEN? Sunlight = White light and contains all colors of the spectrum Leaves contain pigments chlorophyll a & b and carotenoids Chlorophylls absorb all colors besides green = reflect green

9 Why do leaves change in the fall?
Leaves loose their chlorophyll as they die Carotenoids (pigment) reflect yellows, oranges, greens

10 Pigments
