What else can I help you with?
Energy source of photosynthesis?
the sun since it is white light it has more color. plants have better photosynthesis when in blues and reds light which are absorbed. green is not used so it is reflected giving the color of green in most plants.
Why is the green wavelength of light little use in photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll, the molecule in plant cells that traps sunlight energy which is used to power the photosynthetic assembly of sugars, is green in colour. Any molecule that appears green in colour when illuminated by white light (sunlight), is absorbing all the colours (spectrum) which make up white light EXCEPT the green part of the light spectrum, which it is reflected (so that the green light comes back to our eyes).
What part of the plant captures light for photosynthesis?
The green leaves are the bit that absorbs in the sun to make Photosynthesis.Also if you want to test for starch to boil the leaf till it goes white then drip some Iodine And look for a signs traces of starch. That is the long way to find out if the leaves are the ones who develop the phase of Photosynthesis. Hope this helps!
Does a different color of light change the way that a plant grows?
Yes, different colors of light can affect plant growth. Red and blue light are most important for plant growth as they are used in photosynthesis. Green light is less effective for photosynthesis, but still plays a role. White light, which includes all colors, is commonly used in indoor growing settings to provide a balanced light spectrum for plants.
Plants are exposed to red blue and yellow wavelengths of light and the amount of oxygen produced during photosynthesis What can you sugest for a control group?
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.
Which component of white light is not necessary for photosynthesis green orange yellow red blue?
Green
What do we call the component colors of white light?
The component colors of white light are red, green, and blue, also known as the primary colors of light. This is because white light is composed of a mixture of all visible wavelengths of light.
What mostly happens to the rate of photosynthesis as white light levels are decreased?
It decreases. Photosynthesis depends on the availability of light.
Why is variegated leaf used to test to see if chlorophyll is necessary for photosynthesis?
Variegated leaves have patches of green and white due to uneven distribution of chlorophyll. If a variegated leaf is tested by covering the green parts and exposing only the white parts to light, no photosynthesis occurs in the white areas since they lack chlorophyll. This demonstrates that chlorophyll is indeed necessary for photosynthesis to take place.
What colour light is thought to be best for photosynthesis?
White
Blue red and green light are all present in what color light?
White (sun) light contains different colors of lights, when passing through a prism. Plants rely on specific colors of lights to conduct photosynthesis. Since white light contains all the necessary colors of light for photosynthesis it is the most preferred light. Inquiry into Life Laboratory Manual Twelfth Edition Sylvia S. Mader Answers were found on: Chapter 8 Photosynthesis Page 96; Lab experiment under Solar Energy
Is pigment of leaves necessary for photosynthesis?
yes because if the plants have no pigment ,they will became white.
How do light refracting prisms work to separate white light into its component colors?
Light refracting prisms work by bending different colors of light at different angles as they pass through the prism. This causes the white light to separate into its component colors, creating a rainbow effect.
Is it true or false that the separation of white light into its component colors produces what is called a mixture?
False. The separation of white light into its component colors does not produce a mixture. It produces a spectrum of colors, known as a rainbow or a spectrum.
What is a transparent material that separates white light into its component colors by refraction?
refraction.since white ligth
When a white lite strikes a green object only the green component is absorbed?
A green object appears green because it reflects green light and absorbs all other colors present in white light. When white light strikes the object, the green component is absorbed and the rest is reflected back to our eyes, creating the perception of green color.
How would you separated white light into it's component colours?
White light can be separated into its component colors using a prism. When white light enters a prism, it is refracted at different angles based on its wavelength, with shorter wavelengths (such as violet) being refracted more than longer wavelengths (such as red). This results in the white light being separated into its rainbow spectrum of colors.
