They end up producing much less chlorophyll, because they exert their energy searching for the lights. They become very long and spindly, with little or no green color (etiolated).
Chlorophyll production is a feedback system, until the plant sees some light chlorophyll production is minimal at best.

Chlorophyll I presume - the green stuff in the Chloroplasts? Anyway - less of it when in the dark.

Most of the chlorophyll of the plant kept in dark would degenerate. it would be reformed when kept in light again.so the plant kept in dark would have less protein
