actually, as a scientist, I use these terms every day. Here's another one:
Red anthocyanin, it keeps the sap flowing for longer as the temperatures plummets, so the trees can hold on to their leaves and extract every last drop of sugar. That's why if you go to New England's forests in october you'll find a wonderland of colour.
