B Correct answer
Explanation

Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. It is essential for photosynthesis as it absorbs light energy (mostly in the blue and red spectrum) and converts it into chemical energy. Stomata are pores for gas exchange, tendrils are climbing organs, and starch is a carbohydrate storage product.
