All the colours of the rainbow have different wavelengths. For example, violet has short wavelengths, while red has long wavelengths. Visible light appears as white light because it is a mixture of all the colours. Also, chlorophyll is the principal pigment involved in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll absorbs all the different coloured wavelengths, but leaves green as the colour it reflects and as the colour we see.Therefore, white light is best to grow plants under because green light doesn't do much of anything for photosynthesis.
different answers for different plants.
Yes, because there are several other plastids in a plant that absorbs different light to do photosynthesis.
Different wavelengths and frequencies of light are interpreted as different colours; those of sound are interpreted as pitch.
a broader spectrum of visible light energy can be used for photosynthesis

Traffic light colours have different shapes in order to inform the colour blind what colour the light is.

Its a spectrum
When white light shines on the CD, the light is separated into seven colours, so different colours appear on the CD.
It splits into the colours that make it up, so white light makes a rainbow, and different colours produce different results.
It is an antenna or secondary pigment of photosynthesis that reflects yellow/brownish light and absorbs all other colours.
According to the range of frequency of emission light has different colours in different frequenies. Violet. Indigo, Blue, green,Yellow, Orange,Red are the main colours of light.
Yes. Depending on the object (let's use a banana) they reflect different light. Out of appearingly white light, there are colours. A banana appears yellow because it absorbs all other colours and reflects the yellow part of the light. This also means that is you put a plant in green light, it will die because it reflects green and needs the other lights for photosynthesis.
Red light plus green light equals yellow light. This is why you get yellow on a screen. Light colours mixed give you different colours to paint colours. Light Primary colours are red, blue and green but Paint Primary colours are red, blue and yellow.
Most light is a mixture of colors of the spectrum.* White light is composed of all colors. The different wavelengths of light are refracted at different angles, which separates them out into the constituent colors of the original light source. *Laser light is monochromatic.
Light appears white, however it is made up of different colours, which when put together make white light. These colours can be seen if you direct light through a prism. At the right angle the light is split up into the colours (rainbow).
