Looking at the solar spectrum, the curve peak is around wavelength 0.45(microns) falling under the ultraviolet band. This ultraviolet band runs from 0.30 - 0.45. This curve then drops off rapidly and exponentially when under "air mass 0" conditions (outer space) in "air mass 1" conditions (the earths surface) the spectrum follows this curve, with intensity's reduced however as our atmosphere adsorbs some wavelengths better than others the curve tends to jump too and from the trend while still maintaining the exponential decline as seen under air mass 0 conditions. So in short ultraviolet I guess would be the sortest answer ^-^ -Jason MEng
What else can I help you with?
Is sunlight an organism?
Sunlight is not an organism, it is an abiotic factor that aids living organisms though!
Why is ozone important to living organisms?
Ozone shields living organisms from harmful ultraviolet rays emitted by the sun. Without the ozone layer, plants could not survive. Ozone depletion causes increased risks of skin cancer and cataracts in humans.
What was the first skin color present on Earth?
The first skin color present on Earth was likely dark brown or black, as these colors provide better protection against the sun's harmful rays.
3 physiological factors that affect skin color?
Melanin production: Different levels of melanin, a pigment produced by specialized cells in the skin, affect skin color. Blood circulation: Differences in blood flow to the skin can influence skin color, with increased blood flow leading to a redder appearance. Sun exposure: Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun can cause the skin to darken as a result of melanin production.
What is the dominant pigment in chloroplasts?
The major pigments are the chlorophylls. Also some other pigments like xanthophyll,carotene can be seen
What is the color of light emitted by the sun?
The color of light emitted by the sun is white.
What is the dominant wavelength emitted by earth?
The dominant wavelength emitted by Earth is in the range of 10 μm, which falls within the thermal infrared spectrum. This emission is a result of the Earth's surface and atmosphere releasing heat energy absorbed from the Sun.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum is most of the suns energy emitted?
Most of the Sun's energy is emitted in the form of visible light. This includes wavelengths from ultraviolet to infrared.
Most of the light emitted by the sun comes from where?
Most of the light emitted by the Sun comes from its core, where nuclear fusion reactions occur. These reactions convert hydrogen into helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat. This energy then travels outwards, eventually reaching the Sun's surface and being emitted into space as sunlight.
What is the layer from the sun the earth receives the most energy from?
The layer in which the Earth receives the most energy is the photosphere
What layer on the sun this visible to us on earth?
The visible layer of the sun that we can see from Earth is called the photosphere. This is the layer where most of the sun's visible light is emitted, giving it its characteristic brightness and color.
What layer is nearest to the sun surface?
The layer nearest to the sun's surface is the photosphere. It is visible during a solar eclipse as the sun's visible surface and is where most of the sun's energy is emitted as light and heat.
What color is the sun most attracted to?
Black.
Which color absobs the most heat from the sun?
Black- a lack of color- absorbs the most heat.
Which part of the sun lies directly above the visible surface?
The part of the Sun that lies directly above the visible surface is called the photosphere. It is the outermost layer of the Sun that emits light and is the region where most of the Sun's energy is emitted as visible light.
Temperature of the sun's photosphere?
The temperature of the sun's photosphere is around 5,500 degrees Celsius (9,932 degrees Fahrenheit). This is the visible surface of the sun and is where most of its light is emitted.
Where is the most energy emitted in the sun?
The most energy emitted by the sun occurs in the form of electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the visible spectrum. This energy is produced in the sun's core during nuclear fusion, where hydrogen atoms fuse to form helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy. As this energy moves outward, it eventually reaches the surface and is emitted into space, with a significant portion manifesting as visible light. Additionally, the sun emits energy across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, including ultraviolet and infrared radiation.
