What happens when chlorophyll and other pigments absorb light?

In the process of photosynthesis, chlorophyll goes into a peculiar excited state which can survive for an unusually long time. Furthermore, the excitation energy can hope from chlorophyll molecule to chlorophyll molecule. In this way a large collection of chlorphyll molecules function as an "antenna" that collects many photons and funnels their energy down to a reaction center, where one particular chlorophyll will lose an electron.

The scientific method is a series of steps followed by scientific investigators to answer specific questions about the natural world. it involves making observations, formulating a hypothesis, and conducting scientific experiments.the steps of the scientific method are •observation-the first step of the scientific method involves making an observation about something that interests you•question-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •hypothesis-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •experiment-once you've developed a hypothesis, you must design and conduct an experiment that will test it.•results-the results are where you report what happened in the experiment. •conclusion-the final step of the scientific method is developing a conclusion.i hope that this you : )
