Is chloryphll required for photosynthesis?

Yes, chlorphyll is the pigment which captures the light required for photosynthesis


What activates chloryphyll?

The chlorophyll on exposure to light energy becomes activated by absorbing photons(photon is the smallest unit of light energy)


Light excites in photosynthetic pigments?

Light excites two sets of photosynthetic pigments. These are photosystem 1 (PS1) and photosystem 2 (PS2). PS1 is excited by photons at about 700 nanometers, while PS2 is excited at about 680 nanometers.


Sunlight excites electrons in the chlorophyll during the what?

During the light reaction, sunlight excites electrons of chlorophyll P680 in Photosystem One.


How do plants get energy from light?

Light excites ATP synthase in the membrane of plant cells.


What occurs when light causes electrons to move when it hits some substances?

The electrons absorb the light energy, which excites them.


What happen to light of certain frequency that encounters atoms of the same resonant frequency?

The light is absorbed by the atom and excites the atom.


Before photosynthesis can take place light must be what by plants?

Before photosynthesis can take place light must be captured by green plants. Plants use chloryphyll to trap sunlight enery and use it to produce carbohydrates.


When do light reactions take place?

on the atomic scale, the extra energy excites the protons sending them into a higher orbit around the atomic nucleus, the protons wanting to fall into lower position expel the extra energy in various forms, depending on the type atom, mostly into the form of light or molecule vibrations


What are the energy transformations of a fluorescent light bulb?

When a fluorescent lamp is turned on, the electricity excites the mercury vapor inside the tube. UV light is produced. The UV light excites the phosphor coating. The phosphorus atoms relax by releasing a visible light. Since the light emitted by the phosphorus atoms is of a spread spectrum (the frequency is not fixed), the light appears whitish. To summarize, electricity is turned into light.


Why does a plasma ball make fluorescent light bulbs light up?

Anything that excites the gas in a fluorescent will make it light. Static electricity from the carpet will cause compact fluorescent to light.


Has anyone tried to split the light molecule and harness it's power?

There is no such thing as a light molecule
