When is light absorbed?
Light is absorbed by the chloroplasts in chlorophyll in the first step of photosynthesis, which makes energy from the sun. Absorption of light is the first step in photosynthesis to do photolysis of water
The molecule responsible for first capturing the radiant energy from sunlight is?
it's chlorophyll
The first pathway of photosynthesis was?
The first pathway of photosynthesis is the light reaction, which is the absorption of light energy from the sun by the chlorophyll in the plant. The pathway that follows this is the dark reaction or carbon fixation.
Why are pigments such as chorophyll needed for photosynthesis?
Pigments like chlorophyll, capture light energy which is used for the first step of photosynthesis, the light dependent reaction.
Which of the stage of the water cycle is caused when water absorbs heat energy from the Sun?
evaporation!!The stages of the water cycle is caused when water absorbs heat energy from the sun is evaporation because the hint the question gives you is absorbs and absorb means take in. Evaporation means is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs from the surface of a liquid into a gaseous phase that is not saturated with the evaporating substance.
What is photoactivation of chlorophyll?
The initial stage of [[photosynthesis in [[chlorophyll Molecules where the presence of [[light Energy raises the energy. It is the first event int he first phase of photosynthesis which is light-dependent reactions.it happens at the thykaloid. Chlorophyll molecules capture light energy and becomes energized electrons(e-).
What molecule in plants cells first captures the radiant energy from sunlight?
Chlorophyll is the molecule in plant cells that first captures the radiant energy from sunlight. Chlorophyll can also be spelled as chlorophyll.
What molecule first captures energy from the sun?
Chlorophyll
Which molecule in plants cells first captures the radiant energy from sunlight?
chlorophyll
When is light absorbed?
Light is absorbed by the chloroplasts in chlorophyll in the first step of photosynthesis, which makes energy from the sun. Absorption of light is the first step in photosynthesis to do photolysis of water
What happens in the first part of the small intestine?
it absorbs a product
What is the plant pigment that absorbs sunlight?
Autotrophic (meaning self-providing foods) organisms use photosynthesis as their way of getting energy. The first stage of photosynthesis is when light energy is trapped by the Chlorophyll. The Chlorophyll is located in the Chloroplast, an organelle that is used with photosynthesis. This stage is a light-dependent reaction then precedes into a light-independent reaction where stages are used to make Glucose molecules (energy) which are transferred to make ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which is the actual energy used in cell metabolism (energy requiring usage in the cell).
What is chlorophyll a?
Chlorophyll A takes in light energy that will be converted to chemical energy as glucose and then ATP and then to be used and lost as heat energy. The chlorophyll takes in any color of the rainbow except the green and reflects it back to us to see.Actually Chlorophyll a absorbs more red light than other colors, hence its other name, p680 meaning it absorbs red light with a 680 nanometer wavelength. Just to clarify for you, chlorophyll a doesn't magically do all that is listed above, it actually is part of photosystem II, the first stage in many to complete photosynthesis. There is much more to photosynthesis than just a single molecule, but that isn't the question, I just wanted to make it clear.
The molecule responsible for first capturing the radiant energy from sunlight is?
it's chlorophyll
What is the first most immediate thing that happens when light strikes a chlorophyll molecule?
When light strikes a chlorophyll molecule, electrons in the chloroplast get excited.
The molecule responsible for first capturing the photons energy from sunlight is?
They are the chlorophyll. Photosystem II reacts first
How are pigments involved in the photosynthesis process?
The pigments are responsible for capturing the light energy from the sun and converting it to chemical energy. This is the first step of photosynthesis, so the pigments are responsible for initiating photosynthesis.
