Does photosynthesis occur in non-green plants?

Hint: Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy, through cellular respiration, which can then be released to provide fuel for metabolic activities of the body. The chemical energy formed is stored in the form of carbohydrate molecules, such as sugars and starches that are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water.

Complete answer:
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy and process food. The process of photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts.
Chlorophyll is the main pigment, which absorbs light during photosynthesis and is responsible for the green color of leaves. Chlorophyll absorbs light in the blue-violet and red-orange regions. It reflects green light, so the leaves are green. Besides chlorophyll, plants also contain various accessory pigments, which also absorb light at different wavelengths, e.g., xanthophylls, carotenoids, anthocyanins, etc. These pigments are responsible for giving plant parts their distinctive color. These secondary pigments are also present in green leaves.
Photosynthesis also occurs in plants which have non-green leaves. Chlorophyll is present in less quantity and other pigments mask the green color of chlorophyll, so they do not have the green color but carry out photosynthesis.
Chlorophyll “a” is the main pigment involved in photosynthesis because the rate of photosynthesis is maximal at wavelength, which corresponds to the maximum absorption of chlorophyll a.

Note:
Although photosynthesis takes place differently in different species, the process always begins when the energy of light is absorbed by proteins called reaction centers that contain the chlorophyll green pigment. In plants, these proteins are organized inside organelles called chloroplasts, which are most abundant in leaf cells, while in bacteria, they are integrated into the plasma membrane.
