Q:How are plant pigments like teammates on a sports team? And What is the goal of their teamwork??

Pigments in the reaction center work together to organize themselves in place, to protect the plant from injury from incidental light, and to absorb photons from the spectrum with each pigment catching its own portion of the incoming wavelengths. The accessory pigments catch and pass energy to chlorophyll a. Chlorophyll a is the specialist that plays the photon's electromagnetic energy into chemical. It splits water to release its electrons and hydrogen ions for use in the calvin cycle where glucose is manufactured. The goal is to fix energy into a usable organic form for the plant to live on.

Q:What does the word pigment mean?

it means the color. like the pigment of your eyes could be green, blue, hazel. or the pigment of your skin. it's a fancy-pants word for color.

Q:hi:]i need the right order to apply skin pigments...

Pigments are usually packaged in a finely milled loose powder form. After cleansing , toning and moisturizing,let the moisturizer absorb in the skin. Apply the skin pigments using a large compact powder brush/kabuki brush in a circular motion on face neck, then apply a second layer in a downward motion. Then use Evian water Mister to set the pigment. For eye pigments, put a thin layer of skin pigment first, then apply the eye pigment using a oval shaped dome brush

Q:i love makeup so mucch im like addicted...lol but the only thing is that i only buy that department or drug store brands cause i cannot afford high quality brands. the one that i buy are good for me,,but anyways i was wondering what the heck is mac eyepigment,,what is the diffrence between eyeshow and pigment? pleas help thank u,,,oh yeah and what does it look,like on the eyes?

All these people are looking for a way through which they can make their skin look good. Yet, what they have not taken into consideration is the power of natural ingredients. Fruits, vegetables and products coming from animals are great sources of anti-oxidants and are rich in substances which can whiten the skin, moisturize it, attenuate the fine lines and wrinkles and give it elasticity.

Q:What is better, Mac eye pigments or the regular eyeshadow? Also, has anyone tried the mixing medium solution?

M.A.C pigments work really well. I have a few. And I haven't tried mixing medium solution.

Q:Why do plants contain so many pigments?

Chlorophyll is the respond and here is why - this pigment provides flowers their relative eco-friendly shade because of the fact flowers undergo photosynthesis to furnish themselves with glucose for capacity. in this technique, flowers soak up photograph voltaic capacity from the sunlight. Chlorophyll has a eco-friendly pigment for the reason that's the pigment that attracts photograph voltaic capacity the main effectively. consequently offering the plant with greater photograph voltaic capacity, which would be converted into chemical or warmth capacity by way of cellular respiratory, yet that's an entire distinctive tale.

Q:What are MAC pigments?

MAC pigments are similar to eyeshadow, except they are loose and in a small container instead of pressed tight into a palette. They're more pigmented (brighter, more vivid colors). This is Mac cosmetic's websites description: Pigment is a highly concentrated loose colour powder that contains ingredients to help it adhere to the skin. Create a subtle wash of colour or an intense effect. Does not streak or cake. It appears that all the colors they have available (online, at least) are frost finishes too, in case you were wondering that. :)

Q:what is pigment?

In biology, a pigment is any material resulting in color of plant or animal cells. Many biological structures, such as skin, eyes, fur and hair contain pigments (such as melanin) in specialized cells called chromatophores. Many conditions affect the levels or nature of pigments in plant and animal cells. For instance, Albinism is a disorder affecting the level of melanin production in animals. Pigment color differs from structural colour in that it is the same for all viewing angles, whereas structural color is the result of selective reflection or iridescence, usually because of multilayer structures. For example, butterfly wings typically contain structural color, although many butterflies have cells that contain pigment as well.

Q:I hear about it cause my Friend is albino and she was born with no pigments in her hair,skin or eyes

a pigment is a naturally produced substance in humans and nature in general, that reflects light that is perceived by our eyes as colour -a person without pigment would show totally white hair, and pale pink skin and eyes (the pink is from the blood vessels) -we have it to protect us from the sun --> naturally dark or tanned people have lots, rarely get burned or skin cancer; fair-skinned people were designed for the northern areas with less sunlight, burn easily

Q:a. chlorophyll ab. chlorophyll bc. chlorophyll cd. carotenoid pigments

Chlorophylls are greenish pigments which contain a porphyrin ring. This is a stable ring-shaped molecule around which electrons are free to migrate. Because the electrons move freely, the ring has the potential to gain or lose electrons easily, and thus the potential to provide energized electrons to other molecules. This is the fundamental process by which chlorophyll captures the energy of sunlight. There are several kinds of chlorophyll, the most important being chlorophyll a. This is the molecule which makes photosynthesis possible, by passing its energized electrons on to molecules which will manufacture sugars. All plants, algae, and cyanobacteria which photosynthesize contain chlorophyll a. A second kind of chlorophyll is chlorophyll b, which occurs only in green algae and in the plants. A third form of chlorophyll which is common is (not surprisingly) called chlorophyll c, and is found only in the photosynthetic members of the Chromista as well as the dinoflagellates. The differences between the chlorophylls of these major groups was one of the first clues that they were not as closely related as previously thought. Carotenoids are usually red, orange, or yellow pigments, and include the familiar compound carotene, which gives carrots their color. These compounds are composed of two small six-carbon rings connected by a chain of carbon atoms. As a result, they do not dissolve in water, and must be attached to membranes within the cell. Carotenoids cannot transfer sunlight energy directly to the photosynthetic pathway, but must pass their absorbed energy to chlorophyll. For this reason, they are called accessory pigments. One very visible accessory pigment is fucoxanthin the brown pigment which colors kelps and other brown algae as well as the diatoms. From this I would say the answer is c.
