chlorophil reflects green light and causes the plant not to absorb that light, so red would be better.

no it does not

yes because on the visible light spectrum green and yellow are rerflected off the plant(thats why the plant looks green) and absorbs all the other colors

Under which color light will plants grow fastest?

Blue and purple light.


Can a plant grow up to three inches when it is grown under green light?

No, a plant cannot grow at all with a green light Plants use red blue and some yellows to produce photosynthesis Green is what is reflected so it is what you see. Plants do not use green light at all.


What color of light would probably be the least helpful for this plant's growth?

White light would be universal, but if you had to choose a color, and the color of the plant is green, then green light would not help it photosynthesize the easiest, because green light is reflected from these plants. Just like red light would be reflected from red plants, it probably wouldn't be the best to use


What process transfers light energy to chemical energy in a green house?

Photosynthesis, same as outside the green house. So why do we use green houses? The green house is used to raise the temperature so that the plants start growing and are not killed by cold. It does this is two ways, by constricting air flow and blocking infrared light. The major part of this is that outside the green house, when the soil absorbs solar energy and turns it into heat, the air will transport that energy away which cools the soil and the plants growing in it. In the green house the warm air is trapped. To some (small) extent glass will block ultraviolet and infrared rays more than visible light. This stops harmful UV rays from hitting the plants, and it traps the infrared heat emissions from the plants inside the green house. Actually there is less useful sun light energy reaching the leaves within a green house than if the plants were outside it (try sunbathing under glass) but better control of temperature and humidity allows the plant to grow better anyway.


Why would most plants not grow very well under only green light?

Most plants will grow in white light, as it is closer to blue light. Blue light is the light emitted from the sun for the majority of the day. Green light has a very small place on the spectrum and therefore does not appear much. However, if the plant is hardy, it may grow in any light or even no light.

If a plant is kept under green colored light for an exteneded period of time what will happen to the plants food production?

The plants food production would be slower because the green light is reflected instead of absorbed and the only light it gets is green no other colors.


Why do plants grow better under red light?

The photosynthesis pathway has phytochrome systems which response to red light.

Do plants grow better in artificial light or under sunlight?

It depends what you mean by better. They will grow more naturally in sunlight but can be forced artificially with lights and may produce more and be grown out of season. I would say natural is better but then we have a world to feed.


How do you determine which of the three vegetables grow best under artificial light by using the scientific method?

By putting the plants under the light and seeing which one does better.


Do plants grow faster certain colors of light?

Yes they do, certain colors provide certain vitamins/minerals and only sunlight has all the vitamins/minerals needed. Plants get vitamins and minerals from soil, not sunlight. Plants grow slowest under green light because chlorophyll reflects green light (which is why they look green). Plants grow faster under red or blue light. Sunlight is a mixture of red, green and blue light. Plants do get vitamin D from the sun, as do people. Plants do not generate vitamin D from sunlight. Vitamin D is generated in the skin of vertebrates and is necessary for maintaining the bones. The vitamins that plants cannot gather from the soil are generated using a number of different methods. Plants do not require vitamin D.


Does light color grow plants?

Plants, in fact, do grow faster under certain colors of light. The reason for this is that chloroplasts can only absorb certain wave lengths of light because of the pigments they contain. There are 2 photo systems in plants called photo system I and II. PS I absorbs light on the wavelength of 700nm while PS II absorbs 680nm because of their utilization of chlorophyll A and B Green plants will grow SLOWER or not at all under green light. Basically, green is the only brand of light that the plant's chloroplasts doesn't use. That is why it is the only colour reflected from the leaf, and is what we see.
