the higher the light intensity, the shorter the length between the plant internodes, and vice-versa. This can be explained through a conditon called etiolation.

In relation to spectroscopy what is the Optimum wavelength and how to find it?

The optimum wavelength is the wavelength by which the most light is absorbed by a substance. It can be found by finding the highest absorbance obtained when testing the substance's absorbance at various wavelengths. The wavelength that results in the greatest light absorbance is your optimum wavelength.

What is the name for the cleft between the internodes of the myelin sheath?

The cleft between the internodes of the myelin sheath is called the node of Ranvier. This region is important for the propagation of action potentials along the axon.


What is the optimum wavelength of light absorbed by chlorophyll and why?

The optimum wavelength of chlorophyll is 430nm (in a light spectrum of 380nm-750nm going in 10 incements) We did a lab and it required us to determine the optimum wavelength of chlorophyll by testing the absorbance of light in 10nm increments from 380nm-750nm. Optimum wavelength is the wavelength of light that is absorbed best by a substance. So when we tested all the wavelngths 380-750 in 10 increments (380,390,400,410,420....) 430 had the highest absorbance. we used a Spec 20 machine to find the absorbance.

How do plant manufacture their food?

Plants make their own food through photosynthesis. Plants need an optimum temperature (23-25 c), carbon dioxide and optimum light intensity (about 40%) to begin the process of photosynthesis.
