What’s so special about chlorophyll that makes it important for photosynthesis?

​What's so special about chlorophyll that makes it important for photosynthesis

Because light is a form of energy, any compound that absorbs light absorbs energy. Chlorophyll absorbs visible light especially well.

​

In addition, when chlorophyll absorbs light, a large fraction of that light energy is transferred directly to the electrons in the chlorophyll molecule itself. By raising the energy levels of these electrons, light energy can produce a steady supply of high-energy electrons, which is what makes photosynthesis work.
