Nitrogen is needed for proteins, DNA and the chlorophyll that let plants perform photosynthesis.

氮是蛋白质、DNA和让植物进行光合作用绿素所必需。

They contain chlorophyll, which helps create various colors.

他们所含绿素颜色深浅不同。

While chlorophyll is there, it's there and it's green, while if taken away in the shorter days and shorter months of autumn, now you're releasing some of the true colors back to the surface.

当绿素存时候，子就是绿色，而如果秋天白天较短时候消失，一些真实颜色就回到了表面。

Now chlorophyll is key because it gives the leaves its green colors during the long summer months, but beneath the surface, the leave actually always have the red, the oranges, the yellows in place.

绿素是很重要物质，因为漫季，绿素能使呈现绿色，但下表皮，总会有红色、橘色、黄色区域。

Their babies retain the ability to produce their own chlorophyll, though they can't generate energy from sunlight until they've eaten enough algae to steal the necessary genes, which they can't yet produce on their own.

海蛞蝓幼虫保留了独立生成绿素能力，尽管它们需要吃足够藻类来获得必要基因 (此时它们无法独立产生这种基因) 后才能从阳光中获得能量。

They're just hidden by the abundance of green chlorophyll during the warmer months.

它们只是温暖月份被大量绿色绿素掩盖。

It's a major component of all proteins and chlorophyll.

它是所有蛋白质和绿素主要成分。

The chlorophyll inside the leaves traps light from the sun.

子内绿素吸收来自太阳光。

As the chlorophyll in a tree's leaves begins to wane, these underlying pigments become visible.

随着中绿素开始减少，这些潜色素变得可见。

Then comes the chlorophyll-rich palisade mesophyll, where the bulk of photosynthesis occurs.

然后是富含绿素掌状中，大部分光合作用这里发生。

But beneath the surface, the leaves actually always have the reds, the oranges, the yellows in place while chlorophyll is there, it's there and it's green.

但面之下，实际上有地方呈红色、橙色和黄色，而绿素所位置呈现是绿色。

The third way plants interact with incoming light is by radiating it back out at a different wavelength, producing what's called chlorophyll fluorescence.

而植物利用光第三种方式就是让光以一种与之前不同波发射回去，而这会产生一种叫绿素荧光物质。

The incalculable energy of chlorophyll, the green leaf itself, dominates the earth, and the root in the soil is the inescapable fact.

主宰着大地是绿素无法估算能源以及绿本身，土壤中有根存，这是自不待言。

The hornworts provide housing, and the bacteria provide nitrogen, which is an important part of chlorophyll, the pigment involved in photosynthesis, among other things.

角苔提供住房，细菌提供氮，氮是绿素重要组成部分，绿素是参与光合作用色素，还有其他东西。

(Green-on-brown detection, which spots the green chlorophyll in growing plants has been around for a while. Bilberry's process also detects trickier green-on-green).

（绿色棕色检测技术已经存一段时间了，这种检测技术可以检测生中植物中绿色绿素。Bilberry公司还可以识别更棘手绿色杂草和绿色作物）。

Taking the sunlight in, and through a process known as photosynthesis they're able to transfer the sun's energy and create a chemical known as chlorophyll.

吸收阳光，通过光合作用过程，它们能够转移太阳能量并产生一种叫做绿素化学物质。

While it's taken away in the shorter days, the shorter months of autumn, now you're releasing some of the true colors back to the surface.

没有绿素产生短暂秋季，我们可以看到表皮真正颜色。

Or maybe plants were even more clever and turned the weakness of chlorophyll into a strength?

也可能是植物更聪明，将绿素弱点转换为其强项？

And this is where chlorophyll really shines.

这才是绿素真正闪光地方。

They're able to transfer the sun's energy and create a chemical known as chlorophyll.

能够转移太阳能量，产生一种被称为绿素化学物质。
