Concept: The above given statement is true.
Chlorophyll is the pigment present in the green parts of the plant. These are responsible for photosynthesis.
It is present in all photosynthetic organisms. It is responsible for the capture of light and photosynthesis. The color change is due to destruction of the green pigment chlorophyll, so sulfur dioxide pollution causes acid rain and the destruction of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a green pigment that is present in plants' leaves and stems that aids in photosynthesis and gives leaves their distinctive shade of green. These pigments are therefore referred to as photosynthetic pigments.
