What else can I help you with?
Why does a plant grow toward the light B Adapts C is made of cells or D responds?
It IS D because it responds to the light.
What molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of light?
Chlorophyll and carotenoids are examples of molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of light for photosynthesis in plants. In the field of medicine, hemoglobin and melanin are molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of light for various diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
Is a color light?
A color is some specific wavelength, or some specific combination of wavelengths of light.
Are all wavelengths of light equal in phototropism?
No. Different forms of phytochrome absorb different wavelengths of light. Different forms of phytochrome are scattered throughout the plant. This allows the plant to perceive different intensities, wavelengths, and quality of light. Hope that helped!
Can the human eye detect light of different wavelengths. And why?
Yes, the human eye can detect light of different wavelengths. This is because the eye contains different types of photoreceptor cells - cones for color vision and rods for low-light vision. Each type of photoreceptor is sensitive to a specific range of wavelengths, allowing the eye to perceive a wide spectrum of colors.
One indicator that electrons in atoms are limited to specific energy levels is that?
light emitted from excited atoms occurs only at specific wavelengths
Why can humans only see visible light?
Humans can only see visible light because our eyes are equipped with photoreceptor cells that are sensitive to the wavelengths of light within the visible spectrum. Other wavelengths of light, such as ultraviolet and infrared, are not detected by these cells, so we are unable to see them.
How are other organisms able to perceive light in wavelengths that are invisible to humans?
Other organisms can perceive light in wavelengths that are invisible to humans through specialized photoreceptor cells in their eyes. These cells are sensitive to different wavelengths of light, allowing them to see a wider range of colors and light frequencies than humans can. This ability to perceive invisible light wavelengths allows these organisms to navigate their environment, communicate, and find food more effectively.
What causes the dark bands observed in a solar spectrum?
The dark bands are caused from the differnet chemical elements which absorb light at specific wavelengths.
Which receptor cells help distinguish different wavelengths of light?
Cones are the receptor cells in the retina that help distinguish different wavelengths of light. There are three types of cones that are sensitive to different wavelengths (red, green, and blue), allowing us to perceive a wide spectrum of colors.
How do humans see different wavelengths of light?
Humans see different wavelengths of light due to the presence of specialized cells in the retina of the eye called cones. There are three types of cones, each sensitive to a specific range of wavelengths (short, medium, and long wavelengths). When light enters the eye, these cones convert the different wavelengths into electrical signals that are then processed by the brain to create the perception of color.
Which light is helpful in photo synthesis?
Photosynthesis primarily utilizes light in the blue (around 400-500 nm) and red (around 600-700 nm) wavelengths. These wavelengths are absorbed by chlorophyll and other pigments in plant cells, facilitating the conversion of light energy into chemical energy. While sunlight encompasses a broad spectrum, it is these specific wavelengths that are most effective in driving the photosynthetic process.
