Violet is the best red and orange are ok dude rock on kid of the place
What else can I help you with?
What wavelength of light does chlorophyll a reflect?
There are 2 different types of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll "a" absorbs light in the violet and red regions of the visible spectrum while chlorophyll "b" absorbs light in the blue and red regions of the visible spectrum.
What chlorophyll a and b absorb?
Chlorophyll a primarily absorbs blue and red light wavelengths, while chlorophyll b absorbs blue and some green light wavelengths. Together, they work to capture sunlight energy for photosynthesis in plants.
Chlorophyll absorbs every color of light except this?
Chlorophyll absorbs every color of the sunlight except for green. It is green and it cannot absorb its own color.
What is the relationship between light wavelength and photosynthetic rate?
The relationship between light wavelength and photosynthetic rate is governed by the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll absorbs blue and red light most efficiently, while green light is least absorbed. Therefore, light wavelengths in the blue and red spectrum tend to have a greater impact on photosynthetic rate compared to green light.
Which regions of the visible spectrum in which chlorophyll absorbed light very well?
Chlorophyll absorbs purple/blue light really well and orange/red light too. It doesnt absorb green light very well and refects most of ot, making plants appear green to us. Chlorophyll absorbs best in the 600-750 nm (nanometer) range
What is the optimum wavelength of light absorbed by chlorophyll and why?
The optimum wavelength of chlorophyll is 430nm (in a light spectrum of 380nm-750nm going in 10 incements) We did a lab and it required us to determine the optimum wavelength of chlorophyll by testing the absorbance of light in 10nm increments from 380nm-750nm. Optimum wavelength is the wavelength of light that is absorbed best by a substance. So when we tested all the wavelngths 380-750 in 10 increments (380,390,400,410,420....) 430 had the highest absorbance. we used a Spec 20 machine to find the absorbance.
What absorbs wavelengths of light different from those absorbed by chlorophyll?
Other pigments, such as carotenoids and phycobilins, can absorb wavelengths of light different from those absorbed by chlorophyll. These pigments are found in various photosynthetic organisms and help to broaden the range of light that can be utilized for photosynthesis.
The absorption spectrum for chlorophyll reveals that it?
Chlorophylls absorb light most strongly in the red and violet portions of the spectrum. Green light is poorly absorbed so when white light (which contains the entire visible spectrum) shines on leaves, green rays are transmitted and reflected giving leaves their green color. The similarity of the action spectrum of photosynthesis and the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll tells us that chlorophylls are the most important pigments in the process.
What wavelengths of light does chorophyll a asborb best?
Chlorophyll a primarily absorbs light in the blue (450-480 nm) and red (650-700 nm) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. This absorption allows chlorophyll a to participate in photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy for the plant.
What wavelengths of light does chorophyll a absorb best?
Chlorophyll a primarily absorbs red and blue light wavelengths most efficiently, while reflecting green light, which is why plants appear green. This absorption spectrum allows chlorophyll a to capture the energy needed for photosynthesis.
What statement best describes why a leaf appears to be green?
A leaf appears green because of the pigment chlorophyll, which absorbs blue and red light wavelengths, reflecting green light. This process is essential for photosynthesis, where chlorophyll captures energy from sunlight to produce glucose for the plant's energy.
What color light does the chlorophyll in plants absorb best?
Chlorophyll in plants primarily absorbs blue and red light most efficiently. These wavelengths are crucial for the process of photosynthesis, where chlorophyll molecules absorb light energy and convert it into chemical energy to fuel plant growth. Other colors of light, like green, are less absorbed by chlorophyll and are instead reflected, which is why plants appear green to us.
