Light is absorbed by piments list four pigments?

Chlorophyll a: absorbs red and blue light, crucial for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll b: absorbs blue and orange light, complements chlorophyll a. Carotenoids: absorb blue-green light, provide yellow, orange, and red colors. Anthocyanins: absorb green, blue, and UV light, responsible for red, blue, and purple hues in plants.


Chlorophyll absorbs which color of light?

Chlorophyll primarily absorbs red and blue light and reflects green light, giving plants their green color.


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.


Do plants absorb or reflect green light?

YES. Plants absorb AND reflect green light. Leaves are green due to a compound called chlorophyll. The light absorbed by chlorophyll is used to power photosynthesis, the conversion of light energy into chemical energy. On a relative basis, chlorophyll absorbs more blue and red light, compared to green light; and therefore reflects less red and blue light. As a result, there is more green light than red or blue light reflected, so the chlorophyll containing part of the plant appears green. It is commonly thought that chlorophyll does not absorb green light, but that is a fallacy. A dark green leaf can absorb 90% of the green light impinging on it. In contrast, 95% of the red and blue light may be absorbed.


What molecules other than chlorophyll absorb and reflect certain colors?

Chlorophyll a has absorption maxima of 430nm and 662nm. Which corresponds to violet and red. Chlorophyll b has absorption maxima of 453nm and 642nm. Which corresponds to blue and red. Hope that helps

Which parts of the spectrum does chlorophyll absorb best?

blue and red light OR anything with red in it


What colored chemical compounds absorbs light?

Chlorophyll, which is green in color, absorbs light during the process of photosynthesis. Other examples include pigments like carotenoids (orange, yellow) and anthocyanins (red, purple), which also absorb light in plants. Additionally, transition metal complexes such as copper complexes can absorb light and appear colored.

Does chlorophyll a absorb mostly orange red and violet blue light?

yes..

Does Chlorophyll absorb green wavelengths?

Chlorophyll primarily absorbs blue and red wavelengths of light for photosynthesis, while reflecting green wavelengths, which is why plants appear green. Some chlorophyll types can absorb a small amount of green light, but the efficiency is much lower compared to blue and red light absorption.


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 would you see when white light passes through purple then red filter?

When white light passes through a purple filter, the filter will absorb most colors of the white light except for purple, allowing only purple light to pass through. When this filtered purple light then passes through a red filter, the red filter will absorb all colors except for red, thus only allowing red light to pass through. Therefore, you would see red light.


What is chlorophyll composed of?

chlorophyll is composed of many lights that we see in a rainbow. chlorophyll a is when it absorbs all light except for the color red. chlorophyll b is the same as chlorophyll a but instead of not absorbing the color red it refuses to absorb the color blue.
