Higher wavelenghs of the visible light spectrum are best absorbed by chlorophyll.
Green. Rather than being absorbed, it is reflected giving leaves their green appearance.
It depend upon pigments.Chlorophyll a absorbs around 200nm,Chlorophyll b absorbs around 300nm.
They are the pigments. Main ones are the chlorophylls
Those are chlorophyll and carotinoids. They absorb visible light.
Carotenoids(:
carotenoids
There are 2 different types of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll "a" absorbs light in the violet and red regions of the visible spectrum while chlorophyll "b" absorbs light in the blue and red regions of the visible spectrum.
Green wave length of light is reflected hence chlorophyll looks green .
Green, the reason chlorophyll is known as a green pigment is because it absorbs all wavelengths of light but reflects green light.
The rate of photosynthesis is maximum in blue light because the chlorophyll absorbs more light in the range of 400-500 nm wavelength. In addition, chlorophyll also absorbs light in the red region.
Chlorophyll reflects red and yellow light.

There are 2 different types of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll "a" absorbs light in the violet and red regions of the visible spectrum while chlorophyll "b" absorbs light in the blue and red regions of the visible spectrum.
It absorbs all other wavelengths of visible light.
Green wave length of light is reflected hence chlorophyll looks green .
Chlorophyll a absorbs energy from most wavelengths of violet/blue and orange/red. Chlorophyll b is more soluble that chlorophyll a in polar solvents and more yellow in color. It absorbs most energy from blue light.
Carotenoids reflect yellow-orange light and absorb blue-green light.
Green, the reason chlorophyll is known as a green pigment is because it absorbs all wavelengths of light but reflects green light.
It depends upon the type of chlorophyll. Chorophyll a absorbs light at 680 and 700 nm.
Many chemical substances absorb light.
The rate of photosynthesis is maximum in blue light because the chlorophyll absorbs more light in the range of 400-500 nm wavelength. In addition, chlorophyll also absorbs light in the red region.
I'm pretty sure that when the can absorbs the wavelengths, the wavelengths are much warmer, infrared waves. Then, when the can re-radiate, the waves are much cooler. But, I could be wrong.
Chlorophyll reflects red and yellow light.
