Where do plants store energy from the sun?
Plants perform a vital function for their own survival and as part of the ecosystem, and this is Photosynthesis. During this process, during which plants transform solar light into energy, the energy produced is stored in the leaves and part of the stems.
What is a photosystem?
Found in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, photosystems are clusters of chlorophyll and other pigment molecules that absorb sunlight for photosynthesis.
Why do marine organisms with shells remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?
1. As part of the carbon cycle known as photosynthesis, plants and algae absorb carbon dioxide, light, and water to produce carbohydrate energy for themselves and oxygen as a waste product.
Which region of the visible spectrum is not absorbed well by chlorophyll?
Well there are actually different types of cholorophyll, and they absorb light from different parts of the spectrum, however the answer you are probably looking for is that they don't absorb light from the green part of the spectrum. This is in fact why photosynthesizing plants are green.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum do the chloroplasts use?
Chloroplasts of different plants absorb different wavelengths, but usually regions within the Visible light band are used.
Do sunflowers absorb light?
Yes, all plants do; it's a required part of photosynthesis.
Do plants absorb or reflect green light?
YES. Plants absorb AND reflect green light. Leaves are green due to a compound called chlorophyll. The light absorbed by chlorophyll is used to power photosynthesis, the conversion of light energy into chemical energy. On a relative basis, chlorophyll absorbs more blue and red light, compared to green light; and therefore reflects less red and blue light. As a result, there is more green light than red or blue light reflected, so the chlorophyll containing part of the plant appears green. It is commonly thought that chlorophyll does not absorb green light, but that is a fallacy. A dark green leaf can absorb 90% of the green light impinging on it. In contrast, 95% of the red and blue light may be absorbed.
Why do molecules absorb light?
Molecules absorb light because of what light does to their electrons. It can cause a molecule's electrons to become excited and then changes from a full shell to an anti-bonding shell depending on how much light is absorbed.

What is the function of the palisade?
They absorb the light needed for photosynthesis.
Why are Chlorophyll b and the carotenoids important as receptors of light energy?
These pigments are able to absorb more wavelengths of light (and thus more energy) than chlorophyllaalone can absorb. As part of light-harvesting complexes in photosystems, they broaden the range of light that can be used in the light reactions.

What part of the water cycle do plants play?
they absorb the water

How does energy transfer from the sun to plant to you?
Energy comes from the Sun to Earth - and some of it to plants - via sunlight, which can travel through empty space. Plants store part of the energy they get, and we then get the energy from the plants we eat. We - those who are not strict vegans, that is - also get some of the energy in a more indirect way, by eating animal products (meat, eggs, milk); in this case, the animal gets energy from the plants, and stores part of it, and we get the energy from the animal products.
Why do you see plants as green?
Plant appear green because they contain green pigment called chlorophyll. When sunlight fall on the leaves then chlorophyll absorb this light and some part of light reflected back and come into our eyes. So plants appears green.
