Which of the reactions of photosynthesis require pigments absorbing solar energy?

During photosynthesis, a green pigment called chlorophyll is required to absorb solar energy. The reaction in photosynthesis that requires pigments to absorb solar energy is called LIGHT REACTION.

Explanation:

Light reaction is considered to be the first stage or phase during photosynthesis and the key elements that is needed for the reaction to take place is- sunlight and chlorophyll.  Chlorophyll is a pigment that makes the leaves of the plant appear green. There is also another important function of chlorophyll that is to trap solar energy during the process of photosynthesis to convert the trapped solar energy into chemical energy- ATP molecules. These ATP molecules then form glucose- food for the plant.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
