What light wave lengths are reflected in chlorophyll?
Green light is reflected. Red and blue light are absorbed.
Wavelength of light would you expect to be reflected or transmitted by chlorophyll a?
green
What color doesn't chlorophyll absorb?
The color of anything is either the color of the light that is reflected from it, or the light that is transmitted through it. The other colors in white light are absorbed. So, since we see leaves as green whether in reflected light or when light shines through them, green is the color which is NOT absorbed.
What color of light is reflected by the chlorophyll molecule?
Green, red and blue are absorbed
What happens to sun light that strikes a leaf but is not trap by the chlorophyll?
It is either transmitted or reflected. Often, different portions of the light do both.
What color of light is reflected by chlorophyll?
Chlorophyll reflects the green portion of the visible light spectrum, this is why most plants appear green in color
What light wave lengths are reflected in chlorophyll?
Green light is reflected. Red and blue light are absorbed.
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.
How does chlorophyll make a LeafGreen?
The pigments in the chlorophyll are green and the reflected light make the plant green.
Which light wavelength and color is reflected by the pigment chlorophyll?
green
Wavelength of light would you expect to be reflected or transmitted by chlorophyll a?
green
Why is grass green in color?
All plants contain the molecule Chlorophyll which is used by most plants in the process of photosynthesis. This Chlorophyll molecule absorbs Red and Blue light to use the energy from these wavelengths leaving green light to be reflected. It is this reflected green light that makes the leaves of plants look green.
Chlorophyll of plant looks green because green light is what to your eyes?
reflected

So, since we see leaves as green whether in reflected light or when light shines through them, green is the color which is NOT absorbed.
What Does chlorophyll not absorb?
Chlorophyll does not absorb the color green. For this reason, the leaves of many plants appear green, as most other colours of light are absorbed (and therefore, are not reflected, and cannot be seen). When a plant dies, its leaves usually change colour, as the chlorophyll is no longer absorbing light.
