Each kind of pigment absorbs specific wavelengths (colors) of light (dashed lines). Sunlight contains many different wavelengths, which you see when they separate into a rainbow. Not all colors of light are used in photosynthesis (solid line). Most plants, algae, and photosynthetic bacteria appear green because they reflect green wavelengths. Their pigments have absorbed the violet-blue and red wavelengths. The amount of photosynthesis depends on the wavelength of light available. Beta-carotene is another type of pigment that absorbs sunlight.
