What goes in the electron transport chain?
When light hits photosytem II (within the thylakoid), it excites electrons which move through the electron transport chain.
What happens when light hits a pigment?
When a chlorophyll molecule absorbs a photon of light, Photons strike the "antenna" of the chlorophyll molecule. This causes electrons in the photo-reaction centers that are attached to the antennas to become excited and move to a higher energy level. That's photoexcitation. The valence electrons in Magnesium (part of the chlorophyl molecule) jump to an excited state.
True or false When light hits a plant all of the wavelengths of light are absorbed by chlorophyll?
No. There are only certain wavelengths of light that plants can use for photosynthesis.Plants have trouble using green light because it is reflected by the chlorophyll pigment (that is why leaves look green).
What happens when you make a rainbow with the help of a glass of water and sunlight?
The sunlight hits the glass of water and then the light disperses out as a spectrum of colour (rainbow). This is because sunlight is white light and white light contains the 7 colours of the rainbow. When it hits the glass the colours refract and disperse out as the spectrum of colours, which we see as a rainbow.
What happens to a meteor after it hits?
After it hits, it comes to a standstill.
When light hits the pigment what to water?
refraction

What happens when light hits foil?
It should reflect the light.
What happens when a ray of light hits a mirror?
The light hits the mirror and the light bounces off like a reflection
What happens to light when it hits?
it goes nowhere
What happens when light hits a rough surface?
when light hits a rough surface it scattters.
What happens when a light hits a prism and why does it happen?
The light sctters into a spectrum.
What happens to the photo conductive layer when light hits it?
It shines by the light.
What happens if the ray of light hits the mirror?
The ray of light reflects.
What type of reflection happens when a straight ray of light hits smooth mirrors?
When a straight light ray hits a smooth mirror, the regular reflection happens.
What happens when light hits a pigment?
When a chlorophyll molecule absorbs a photon of light, Photons strike the "antenna" of the chlorophyll molecule. This causes electrons in the photo-reaction centers that are attached to the antennas to become excited and move to a higher energy level. That's photoexcitation. The valence electrons in Magnesium (part of the chlorophyl molecule) jump to an excited state.
What happens to light when it hits clear glass?
the light is being reflected in the opposite direction. when it hits some point for example the edge of grass it will start to burn (that happens in case of sun light)
