In class today we learned why leaves change colors and how.Here are the reasons,
The green colors come from a pigment called chlorophyll.The yellow and orange pigments are on the leaves already but only show when the green starts fading.Red colors come from a pigment called anthocyanins. This pigment starts showing after the green starts fading.When leaves are brown that is the trees waste.(To humans that is the thing we put in the toilet).
