It grows better with red light. Green light will kill your plant.
No, a plant cannot grow at all with a green light Plants use red blue and some yellows to produce photosynthesis Green is what is reflected so it is what you see. Plants do not use green light at all.
All the colours of the rainbow have different wavelengths. For example, violet has short wavelengths, while red has long wavelengths. Visible light appears as white light because it is a mixture of all the colours. Also, chlorophyll is the principal pigment involved in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll absorbs all the different coloured wavelengths, but leaves green as the colour it reflects and as the colour we see.Therefore, white light is best to grow plants under because green light doesn't do much of anything for photosynthesis.
Plants appear green in sunlight because they contain chlorophyll, a pigment that reflects green light. Under red light, plants appear black because chlorophyll absorbs red light for photosynthesis and does not reflect any light back to our eyes. This difference in absorption and reflection properties causes the color variation in different light conditions.
Plants grow fastest under blue light, as it is responsible for promoting vegetative growth and chlorophyll production. Blue light also enhances photosynthesis, which is essential for plant growth.
White light would be universal, but if you had to choose a color, and the color of the plant is green, then green light would not help it photosynthesize the easiest, because green light is reflected from these plants. Just like red light would be reflected from red plants, it probably wouldn't be the best to use

The photosynthesis pathway has phytochrome systems which response to red light.
It depends what you mean by better. They will grow more naturally in sunlight but can be forced artificially with lights and may produce more and be grown out of season. I would say natural is better but then we have a world to feed.
Plants grow fastest under blue light, as it is responsible for promoting vegetative growth and chlorophyll production. Blue light also enhances photosynthesis, which is essential for plant growth.
If a plant is kept under green light for an extended period, its photosynthesis will be affected as green light is not efficiently absorbed by chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for photosynthesis. This can lead to a decrease in the plant's food production as it may not receive the necessary light energy required for photosynthesis.
By putting the plants under the light and seeing which one does better.
Yes they do, certain colors provide certain vitamins/minerals and only sunlight has all the vitamins/minerals needed. Plants get vitamins and minerals from soil, not sunlight. Plants grow slowest under green light because chlorophyll reflects green light (which is why they look green). Plants grow faster under red or blue light. Sunlight is a mixture of red, green and blue light. Plants do get vitamin D from the sun, as do people. Plants do not generate vitamin D from sunlight. Vitamin D is generated in the skin of vertebrates and is necessary for maintaining the bones. The vitamins that plants cannot gather from the soil are generated using a number of different methods. Plants do not require vitamin D.
