How does light interact with leaves to begin the process of photosynthesis? pigment molecules reflect light energy. pigment molecules absorb light energy. oxygen molecules absorb light energy. oxygen molecules reflect light energy.

Pigment molecules absorb light energy.

Explanation:

During photosynthesis, green plants manufacture their food when carbondioxide combines with water in the presence of sunlight. The sunlight posses heat energy which is absorbed by the green pigment in leaves called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight which converts the raw materials of photosynthesis into chemical energy products.

The green pigment in leaves helps traps and absorb sunlight which is used to drive the photosynthetic process.
