Answer:

photosynthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Chlorophyll a absorbs the wavelengths of violet-blue and orange-red light and functions as a primary electron donor during the election transport chain in photosynthesis. It also functions in transporting energy to the reaction center where P680 and P700 are located.
