There are a few reasons why it is possible to simplify the number of actual refractions in a lens down to one refraction at a central line through the optical centre. One reason is that when light passes through a lens, the lens refracts the light in such a way that the light is brought to a focus. The amount of refraction that occurs depends on the curvature of the lens and the index of refraction of the lens material. However, no matter how curved the lens is, the amount of refraction is always the same at the optical centre of the lens. This is because the optical centre is the point on the lens where the light rays passing through the lens are parallel to the principal axis of the lens. Another reason why it is possible to simplify the number of actual refractions in a lens down to one refraction at a central line through the optical centre is that when a lens is rotated about its optical axis, the image formed by the lens does not rotate. This is because the optical centre of a lens is invariant with respect to rotation. This means that it is not necessary to take into account the actual refractions that occur at different points on the lens when calculating the image formation by the lens.
The window is too wide (relative to the wavelength of light)
No, dispersion doesn't occur through a hollow prism.
The light will be diffracted and an interference pattern of alternate dark and light areas will occur on the wall.
Yes, if its on.

Yes, it is true.
Yes light can travel through prisms. At some points it would occur total internal reflection and at some points there would be refraction of light.
Light and sound travel through the air.

light dependent reactions only occur in light this means thier reations increases with light intensity while light independent can occur in the dark
The light-dependent reactions will not occur.
colour must occur in one of three ways: light must be refracted off a surface. light must pass through a fliter or prism or liquid. light must be projected. Of the correct wavelength to produce a colour. the light must then pass into the back of the eye and hit the rods and cones at the back of the eye. Then the brain must process the image through the optic nerve.
The primary source of light on Earth is the Sun. It emits light and heat energy through a process called nuclear fusion in its core. This light sustains life on our planet and allows for photosynthesis to occur in plants.
Light- independent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts of a cell.
