No. Different forms of phytochrome absorb different wavelengths of light. Different forms of phytochrome are scattered throughout the plant. This allows the plant to perceive different intensities, wavelengths, and quality of light. Hope that helped!
Green, the reason chlorophyll is known as a green pigment is because it absorbs all wavelengths of light but reflects green light.
For a control group, you can expose the plants to white light which consists of all visible wavelengths. This will allow you to compare how the plants respond to this balanced light source compared to the specific red, blue, and yellow wavelengths.
Dandelions appear yellow in white light because they reflect predominantly yellow wavelengths of light and absorb other colors. The pigments in the flower, such as carotenoids and flavonoids, give it its yellow color. These pigments absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect yellow light, making the dandelion appear yellow to our eyes.
Plants primarily need blue and red light wavelengths for optimal growth. Blue light is important for vegetative growth, while red light is crucial for flowering and fruiting. However, a balanced spectrum of light that includes all wavelengths found in natural sunlight is best for overall plant health and growth.
pigment is any substance that absorbs light. The color of the pigment comes from the wavelengths of light reflected (in other words, those not absorbed). Chlorophyll, the green pigment common to all photosynthetic cells, absorbs all wavelengths of visible light except green, which it reflects to be detected by our eyes. Black pigments absorb all of the wavelengths that strike them. White pigments/lighter colors reflect all or almost all of the energy striking them. Pigments have their own characteristic absorption spectra, the absorption pattern of a given pigment. the Light Dependent Processes (Light Reactions) light strikes chlorophyll a in such a way as to excite electrons to a higher energy state. BTW this is a yahoo answers response so give the other person credit. :)
No, not all plants use phototropism to grow. Phototropism is the growth response of plants to light, where they grow towards a light source. While many plants exhibit phototropism, there are some plants that may not rely heavily on this mechanism for growth.
All of the wavelengths of VISIBLE LIGHT.
All of the electromagnetic spectrum can be reflected. White light is a combination of all colors. They all reflect, red is among them.
Black is seen when all wavelengths of light are absorbed because no light is reflected back to the eyes.
Black objects absorb all or most of the visible wavelengths of light, whereas white objects reflect all wavelengths. When all visible wavelengths (violet to red) enter the eye in equal proportions, the color is perceived as white. When no wavelengths reach the eye, the color is perceived as black. Every other color is a mixture of this continuum of wavelengths.
No, a solution that reflects white light does not absorb all wavelengths. Instead, it reflects most of the wavelengths within the visible spectrum which combine to form white light.
White reflects the most light as it reflects all visible wavelengths of light effectively, while black absorbs all wavelengths.
No, photon energy is not the same for all wavelengths of light. The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency, so different wavelengths of light can have different photon energies. Shorter wavelengths of light have higher energy photons, while longer wavelengths have lower energy photons.
If the lights from all visible wavelengths are combined, they appear to be a white color.
Black is the only color that does absorb all wavelengths of light.White is the color that reflects all wavelengths of light.All other colors absorb only certain wavelengths of light and reflect the rest.
The color of light is determined by its wavelength. Different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors in the visible spectrum, with shorter wavelengths being perceived as blue and longer wavelengths as red. Mixing different wavelengths of light can create all the colors of the rainbow.
It is false that a solution that reflects white light absorbs all wavelengths. A solution that reflects white light reflects all wavelengths.
