Gamma rays from solar flares are the most energetic. X-rays and extreme ultra-violet (UV-C) rays from the sun's corona are the next most energetic.
Shorter wavelengths carry more energy. In the electromagnetic spectrum, gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths and therefore the most energy.
The wavelengths of light that contain the most energy that plants can use are blue.
Most planets absorb energy in the light and UV (and shorter) wavelengths. Planets radiate energy in the infrared (heat) and longer wavelengths.
Radiation from the sun (infra red wavelengths)
The most energy-rich wavelengths of light are in the ultraviolet (UV) and gamma-ray regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. UV light contains enough energy to break molecular bonds and cause damage to living tissue, while gamma rays have the highest energy and are capable of penetrating deep into materials.
Red color
Most of the visible light spectrum except green wavelengths is absorbed by the chlorophyll molecule and is usable in photosynthesis as a source of energy for plants.
mitochondria
because the ozone in the earth's atmosphere absorbs most UV wavelengths, plants have evolved accordingly. while most pigments developed don't use UV light, some wavelengths are still converted into energy.
you see how close the wavelengths are-- the closer, the more powerful it is. Here are the wavelengths- from least powerful to most powerful: Radiowaves, Microwaves, Infared Waves, Visable Light, Ultraviolet, X-rays, and Gamma rays.
organelles!!
Gamma rays carry the most energy in the electromagnetic spectrum. They have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies, making them the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation.
