    Janet looked out her bedroom window and saw the beautiful, new, white snow covering the ground outside.

    Leaves often change color before they fall. As autumn approaches, chlorophyll, the green pigment used in photosynthesis, breaks down. As chlorophyll is lost from leaves, other yellow and orange pigments are revealed. These pigments were always present in the leaves but were hidden by the green chlorophyll. Some leaves also have red pigments, which also become visible when chlorophyll is broken down.

    What causes green leaves to change color in the fall?

    the amount of orange pigment increases.

    chlorophyll breaks down

    chlorophyll changes into red pigment

    the amount of yellow pigment stays the same
