The resistance of LDR increases when light is not available (or is limited). And the resistance drops when Light is abundant.
This principle can be used in proximity detectors where one or more light source(s) is/are active. When a person / object comes in proximity of the source, the light gets reflected from the object-surface & can now be received by LDR. So due to proximity of the object, resistance of LDR changes - this can be used to trigger different actions like open the door, trigger a motor. Fire an alarm. etc.
Resistance of LDR varies according to intensity of incident light over it,It is used in street light to detect day/night and turn on/off the street light automatically
A photoresistor or light dependent resistor or cadmium sulfide (CdS) cell is a resistor whose resistance decreases with increasing incident light intensity. It can also be referenced as a photoconductor. A photoresistor is made of a high resistance semiconductor. If light falling on the device is of high enough frequency, photons absorbed by the semiconductor give bound electrons enough energy to jump into the conduction band. The resulting free electron (and its hole partner) conduct electricity, thereby lowering resistance.
A LDR or light dependant resistor is a resistor that works when light is not shining on it, so if there is light on it it will not resist a current, you can also get them to work the other way.
The LDR dependent AC dimmer is a Light Dependent Resistor which works by chopping off the parts of the AC voltage.
Thylakoids are the site of light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. They're electron carriers.
Build sugar
To take CO2 from the air and turn it into oxygen that we can breathe. Their are light dependent and independent reactions.
Light-dependent reactions are in the thylakoid membrane inside the chloroplasts. Light-dependent reactions need light energy and are the first step of photosynthesis.
using a variable resistor we can adjust the sensitivity of a light dependent resistor
yes, a variable resistor
An LDR is a Light dependent resistor.

The function of an LDR or light dependent resistor is to change the brightness of the light based weather conditions or light hitting the object the LDR is on. When it is darker out, the light does not shine as brightly.
LDR refers to Light Dependent Resistor.

As light falls on the conductor then emission of electrons would increase the conductivity and so its resistivity decreases. Such a conductor is known as light dependent resistor.
Its slows down energy when it passes thought the light depntent resistor.
