Generally, the more light, the more plant growth. Color is more related to the type and amount of nutriments or fertilizer in the soil. ....More Info Amount of sunlight does affect growth and LEAF colour of plants. Sometimes flower colour is affected as well. Certain plants do better in shady, low-light locations than in full sun locations. Shade loving plants planted in hot sunny locations often have pale, semi-transparent leaves sometimes with brown dry edges (water is evaporating too fast from the plant and too intense sunlight is 'bleaching' colour, basically dehydration and sunburn is occurring.), and may grow thin and weak. Sun loving plants planted in shady low-light locations often have darker or lighter coloured leaves, fewer & smaller flowers and can look weak and thin. Greatly reduced sunlight for sun-loving plants can also stunt growth.

Flower colour is determined by plant genetics. Inappropriate sunlight may slightly alter flower colour to a paler or deeper shade of the same colour and NOT change from red to white. Example: "Nellie Moser", a Clematis, grows well in both sunny and shady locations. Flower is a much deeper shade of pink when grown in the shade.

Sunlight comprises different lights having different wavelengths like UV, visible, IR, X ray etc. When the rays from sunlight fall on the material, it changes the bonding of material which results into sight color change. The heat from sunlight also plays a role.

In the plant are organelles called chloroplasts. They transfer energy from the sun in to energy for the plant, and hey are pigmented green.

How is a rainbow produced?

A rainbow forms when there is water in the air and the sun reflects off of this water. When the sun shines through some rain the light from the sun is broken up into it's spectrographic colors. Normal light is invisible to us but we see the effects as light allows us to see things. The things we all see are always some color, yes black and white are colors. Why? Because light is made up of every color you can think of. When you see a red car that is because the car's paint absorbs all of the light EXCEPT the red which is reflected back to you eyes. So all the colors we see in life are just reflections of those colors while all the other colors are being absorbed by the object we are viewing. So when the sunlight shines through the rain the rain acts like a prism and filters or breaks the light into it's various individual colors that we see. Generally we see it as Roy G. Biv. or Red Orange Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. Roy G. Biv is a good way to remember the colors that one sees. We call the colors the are visible from a rainbow a spectrum of colors.


What All of the visible color light waves together result in light?

trueWhite light is made up of all the colors of the visible spectrum. If we drop back to the idea of the colors of the rainbow, the red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet, we'll have the colors. The colors making up white light are all the colors from red to violet. Said another way, all the colors of light from the infrared to the ultraviolet make up white light.White light is made up of every other color of light. Blue, red, yellow, orange, everything. When these colors of light are combined, they form white lightthe apex answer is: white light....... :0).


Why does the violet light split into different colors when it passes through the prism?

Violet light does not split into different colors when it passes through a prism.If it goes in violet, it comes out violet.White light is a combination of light of many colors. If you pass white light througha prism, a spread of different colors will come out of the prism, because each colorbends through a slightly different angle on its way through the prism.


Why is visible light white?

The way color is viewed by the human eye is a spectrum of colors, Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indago, Violet. Those are the only colors the human eye can see. By mixing colors you get others, teal, grey, pink so on and so forth. everything has a color to them as defined by humans. Water is blue because when a white light is shined on it the ony color it doesn't absorb is blue, it gets reflected and in turn makes it visible to the human eye. A white item absorbs all color making it appear white.


What makes the green light in a spotlight look green?

The wavelength of the light affects the way that we see it.

How white light produced different colors?

White light doesn't produce different colors. The only way to make white light is tocombine light with all of the different colors. So if you already have white light, allof the colors are already there. You only have to separate them in order to see them.


What causes the different colors in the spectrum?

Visible light contains all of the colors with in the spectrum. The only way we see color is the bending and refraction of the visible light sending certain wave lengths back, which our brain interprets as different colors.


Do colors affect your emotions?

yes colour does affect our emotions and the way we behave :)


How do humans see colors based on the wavelength of light?

When wavelengths composed of white light are interfered with by matter on their way to our eyes, or when a non-white distribution of light has been emitted.


Is Black all colors or no colors?

Black would be no colours. the way we see things, is that light bounces off a surface, and into our eyes. The colour of the surface decides the colour of the light that is bounced into our eyes, and allows us to tell what colour it is. If there either isn't any light, or nothing that bounces in our direction, then we'll see the absence of light as black.


Why do light colors absorb less heat than dark colors?

Colors that appear light appear that way because they absorb less of the incident light, and reflect more of it to you.Colors that appear dark appear that way because they absorb more of the incident light, and reflect less of it to you.

How does light become colors?

When you say 'Light' you probably mean, 'White light'. White light, or just plain old light, say, from the Sun, is composed of light of all the different visible colors. Light can be separated out into all the colors that are in it by using a prism or by reflecting the light off of tiny water droplets in the sky (creating a rainbow). The weirdest way to split light into its colors that I have ever seen is caused by light bouncing back from the tiny glass balls that are spread on wet traffic-stripe paint. It is really strange to see "rainbows" on the street!


Does color of the laser affect the velocity of light waves?

No. The speed of all colors of light, and of all other wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, is the same number, as long as they're all making their way through the same substance.


What material is use to separate the colors of spectrum?

A glass prism is the best way to see how light can be separated into the full spectrum of color. A cut crystal piece will also break the light up.


What happens to the light waves when it goes through a spectrum?

When light goes through a spectrum, the waves are split into different colors, or spectra. The colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. That way, you can distinguish what type of light or element is is by counting the number of each type of color.


Why is a spectrum of colors not obtained when light passes through a glass slab?

The light has to pass through in a way that the colors are separated and refracted, but if they pass through glass and are not refracted in a certain way they will not separate the spectrum
