No, it shouldn't do. In the absorption spectrum for chlorophyll (overall), yellow light is very low. This shows that not much light and hence energy is absorbed by the plant and therefore, not as much photosynthesis can occur.

How would a light grow in pure yellow light?
the plant would die
How would a plant react if only exposed to red light?
The plant would never flower, it needs blue light to flower but it would grow normally....
Does the wavelength of light a plant is exposed to affect plant?
Yes.
What will be the color of leaves of a plant not exposed to sunlight?
yellow/brown
What effect does light have on a plant growth?
When a plant is exposed to light, it undergoes photosynthesis. During this process, the plant turns light energy and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugars for the plant to consume. Therefore, a plant more exposed to light will produce more food for itself, and grow more.
How well would a plant grow in a pure yellow light?
Since yellow is only weakly absorbed by the pigments, the plant will grow slowly if at all. Violet, blue and some red light is most strongly absorb.
How well would a plant grow under pure yellow light and explain?
It would not grow well at all since yellow is not the wave length of light that plants use to photosynthesize.
What ll b d color of d green leaf if yellow light fall on it?
Leaves are green because green is the color they reflect, or reject. If you exposed a green plant to only green light, it would perish. Yellow is close to green and it's likely that an all-yellow light would not allow green plants to thrive. This question practically calls out for a science experiment now that monochrome (one color) fluorescent lights are available.
What effects does light have on plants growth?
When a plant is exposed to light, it undergoes photosynthesis. During this process, the plant turns light energy and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugars for the plant to consume. Therefore, a plant more exposed to light will produce more food for itself, and grow more.
Does the yellow light affect plant growth?
it helps the plant grow
All but which condition must be present for light-independent reactions to occur?
the plant is exposed to light
How well would a plant grow under a yellow light?
Most plant life needs full spectrum lighting. In early stages of a flowering plant, it would need a blue and green spectrum (achieved with usually metal halide light) and then switched over to a red and orange spectrum (using high pressure sodium lighting). Growing a plant under pure yellow light will most likely make the plant grow quickly, but wiry - the stem will get really long and the top of the plant will most likely fall over eventually). It depends on the plant. Pure yellow light uses the red/orange spectrum and cacti do well in this type of lighting. Houseplants (which prefer blue/green spectrum) would most likely do poorly in "pure yellow light".
