Chlorophyll absorbs red in the fall, rather than green.
Leaves are red in the fall because chlorophyll breaks down because there's less sunlight. This breakdown reveals other pigments, such as anthocyanins, which can give the leaves their red color.

Responses
water + carbon dioxide → glucose + oxygen + energy
water + carbon dioxide → glucose + oxygen + energy
water + carbon dioxide + energy → glucose + water
water + carbon dioxide + energy → glucose + water
glucose + oxygen → water + carbon dioxide + energy
glucose + oxygen → water + carbon dioxide + energy
glucose + oxygen + carbon dioxide → water + energy
Responses
water + carbon dioxide → glucose + oxygen + energy
water + carbon dioxide → glucose + oxygen + energy
water + carbon dioxide + energy → glucose + water
water + carbon dioxide + energy → glucose + water
glucose + oxygen → water + carbon dioxide + energy
