Why is grass green.?
Answers:
Elf piss. Sorry, couldn't help it. Chlorophyll is correct.
chlorophyll
why is the sky blue?
Why is the sky blue? ;-)
mine is brown
that's a good question i haven't a clue i would like to no that anyway cyaz xx
Because of the chemical in it called Chlorophyll
A lot more detail here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/chlorophyll.
it's the chloroform pigment inside it. It's produced during photosynthesis which needs sunlight and water. Therefore if you deprive a plant of either it will be green.

Not all grass is green, mine is brown, and in Kentucky it is blue...
Chlorophyll is the greening agent. It also is necessary for photosynthesis which produces the energy to make the plant grow.
chloroform > chlorophyll
cos the british army paints it to keep it looking good!
it contains chlorophyl which repflects the green spectrum in the light and absorbs the rest.
It's the chlorophyll. Either that or there's a really fast painter who's been fooling us all for a long time.
Why is sky blue?
Can you imagine summersaulting down a hill and both the sky and the grass were blue?
Grass and most other plants are green because they contain a pigment
known as chlorophyll. The chlorophyll is used in the process of
photosynthesis where a plant produces sugar in the presence of
sunlight. In fact the word 'photosynthesis' means literally to
synthesize or 'make' from light (photo). There are, of course some
plants which do not contain chlorophyll, and these generally get their
nutrition (food) by other means. Some examples are the fungi which
decompose dead, and sometimes living, tissue, for their food.
You will find that a green plant needs light to make food. If the
source of light is cut off, the plant dies. Mushrooms, which are
fungi, do not require light to make food (they decompose matter
as I mentioned above) and you can find mushrooms growing in almost
total darkness.
The process of photosynthesis is described in great detail in many
science books. It is really the process by which life as we know it
is able to continue and renew itself.

cos blue grass looks stupid
coz sky is blue , clouds r white , apple is red etc etc etc
Grass is green because it is envious of trees which are much taller and don't get stepped on like grass does. Trees don't get mowed every week in the summertime and sprayed with Weed-be-gone.
Just Joking

why are you asking this question ? you can figure it out yourself .
well.
everything has a standard color. if you rather thar your grass would be white. You should ask for it!
:)
I'm just joking. with your question. I've learned why does the grass is green! :)
Have a nice day!
Interesting questions when you really think about it. The answer everyone gives is "chlorophyll"
But nobody bothers to explain why.
Plants don't absorb green light produced by the sun. Instead, they reflect it. That's why they appear green to us. Your grass is using the yellow and orange light from the sun, but not green.
Actually, the majority of the visible light from the sun is in the green part of the spectrum. It's likely that chlorophyll plants evolved underwater beneath red algae. The red algae used the green light and the green plants beneath it used whatever was leftover -- this also explains why plants aren't black, which one would expect if they were to make efficient use of all visible light.
their is Q's we dont no
dont know but mines dead , hose pipe ban

Grass appears green because all of the colors in the rainbow are absorbed into the leaves of the grass except green.
Thus green is the only visible colour to us on the grass .
Cos footballers need to know where the white ball is - please don't try to confuse them by growing grass of another colour; they're sad gits at the best of times !
Not for people that live in Kentucky it isn't.. :-)
