What wavelengths of light do chlorophyll b pigments readily absorb?

blue-green


Why are chlorophyll a and b green?

They both absorb al of the wavelengths of sunlight except for green.


Why does a leaf appear green when a person looks at it?

The chlorophyll pigments absorb all wavelengths of light except in the green spectrum, which it reflects.


Light of the green wavelengths is commonly absorbed by which accessory pigment?

Carotenoids and chlorophyll b absorb some of the energy in the green wavelength.


What wavelengths does carotene absorb?

Carotenoids reflect yellow-orange light and absorb blue-green light.


What colored chemical compounds absorbs light?

Many chemical substances absorb light.


What chlorophyll a and b absorb?

Chlorophyll a and b absorb BLUE-VIOLET and RED wavelengths of light best.


Why are chloroplast green on the electro magnetic spectrum?

Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll in them.Chlorophyll absorb red and blue color wavelengths making them appear green.


Why only using green light would the plants look droopy?

Chlorophyll in plants does not absorb green light as they reflect this color. That is why plants are, generally, green as they reflect green light and absorb other wavelengths of light.


Leaves appear green because the green portion of the light that strikes them is?

Chlorophyll absorbs most wavelengths of light except green. Because chlorophyll cannot absorb this wavelength, it is reflected, giving leaves a green appearance. So your answer is reflected.


Green pigment in a plant that make it appear green is called?

Chlorophyll is the pigment in plants that makes the plant appear green.It absorbs blue and red wavelengths of light from the sun, and reflects green wavelengths of light.In the fall/ autumn, many plants produce less chlorophyll, and the karotenoids stand out. Karotenoids are other pigments that absorb green and blue wavelengths of light, and reflect yellow and red wavelengths of light instead.


What is the relationship between chlorophyll and chloroplasts?

Yes chlorophyll effect the color of the plant, the wavelengths of light that they absorb do not reflect the color that they emit out. Chlorophyll resist absorbance of wavelengths between about 530nm and570nm, which, if you look on the electromagnetic spectrum, is the range for green light.
