Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in plants and other photosynthetic organisms. It absorbs light energy from the sun and uses it to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, a type of sugar that plants use for energy. Chlorophyll is found in the chloroplasts of plant cells, which are small organelles that are responsible for photosynthesis. The absorption of light energy by chlorophyll is what gives plants their green color.
