A pine needle. Because the pine needle has a waxy outside so it keeps all the moisturized stuff inside ( such as water).

Why is a leaf dark green on one side and light on the other?

Because the amount of chlorophyll in the top of leaf is much greater than the amount of chlorophyll in the bottom of leaf. As the chlorophyll is green in colour that's why the top portion of leaf is more green in colour.


Does direct sunlight produces more than indirect sunlight?

Yes it does. When the sunlight is direct, it specifically hits a location so more solar energy is packed into that area. Therefore, it is warmer in that area. For example, the equator.


How does the angle at which sunlight strikes earth surface affect the intensity of the sunlight?

The more acute the angle at which the sunlight strikes, the more atmosphere that sunlight must pass through. Passing through more atmosphere will weaken and dim the light beams. As the angle at which sunlight hits the earth changes, the same amount of sunlight is spread over different areas, so that near the poles each area of surface receives less intense radiation than an equivalent area near the poles.


Does the sunlight spectrum change throughout the day?

Yes, the sunlight spectrum changes throughout the day. At sunrise and sunset, the sunlight passes through more of the Earth's atmosphere, scattering shorter wavelengths like blue and violet light. This causes the sunlight to appear more red or orange during these times. In contrast, during midday when the sun is higher in the sky, the sunlight appears whiter as it contains a more balanced spectrum of colors.


Why direct sunlight hotter than reflected sunlight?

Direct sunlight is hotter than reflected sunlight because it delivers a concentrated amount of solar energy directly to a surface, resulting in higher temperatures. Reflected sunlight, on the other hand, scatters the energy and typically loses some intensity and heat during the reflection process. This means that surfaces illuminated by direct sunlight absorb more energy and heat up more than those illuminated by reflected sunlight.
