* Make leaves have a maximal surface area and minimum volume so all chloroplast have exposure to sunlight. * Have the leave perpetually orientated so the top surface is always facing the sun. * Make all non-photo-synthetic material transparent. * Elevate the leaves above all other obstructions to the sunlight.
What else can I help you with?
Is the color of a leaf light relfected or light absorbed?
White light form the sun is made up of :-Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet colored light (as you see in a rainbow)When this white light hits a leaf, all the colors exceptGreen are absorbed by the pigments in the leaf. The Green light is not absorbed and this is reflected to your eyes so that leaves appear green.
What does the sun supply to the leaf?
Light energy.
Leaf Cell's use chlorophyll to absorb what?
Light
What was the purpose of keeping the leaf in the dark and then covering it with a cardboard cut-out?
The purpose of keeping the leaf in the dark is to prevent photosynthesis from happening. By covering it with a cardboard cut-out with a specific design, you can control which parts of the leaf are exposed to light, allowing for experiments on the effects of light on photosynthesis in different areas of the leaf.
What is the function of on leaf?
Leaf absorbs sun rays which leads to PHOTOSYNTHESI. Leaf is like a solar plate , convert the light energy to other products of plants
What happens to green light an red light when they shine on a green leaf?
When green light shines on a green leaf, the leaf absorbs most of the green light and reflects some of it, giving the leaf its green color. Red light is not absorbed as efficiently by the leaf, so it gets reflected, making the leaf appear green under white light.
What happens to light energy when it strikes what happens to light energy when it strikes a leaf?
When light energy strikes a leaf, some of it is absorbed by pigments in the leaf for photosynthesis, some is reflected, and some is transmitted through the leaf. The absorbed light energy is converted into chemical energy by the leaf for use in metabolic processes.
When light energy from the Sun strikes a leaf how is the energy conserved?
When light energy strikes a leaf then chlorophill (a) present in leaf absorb that light energy . By use of that energy photosynthesis occurs.
What happens when light strikes a green leaf?
the leaf reflects on the light so it prevents it to burn (fire)
How can one identify if a leaf is see-through?
Hold the leaf up to a light source. If you can see light passing through the leaf, it is see-through.
What are two things that happen to light when it strikes a leaf?
Light is either absorbed or reflected when it strikes a leaf. Absorbed light is converted into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis, while reflected light is what gives the leaf its color.
What are the 3 things that can happen to light which strikes a leaf?
When light strikes a leaf, it can be absorbed, transmitted through the leaf, or reflected off the surface. Absorbed light is used in photosynthesis to produce energy for the plant. Transmitted light passes through the leaf to reach other parts of the plant, while reflected light bounces off the leaf's surface and can be used for other purposes.
What are 3 analagies to a leaf?
1. Your as green as a leaf 2. Your as light as a leaf. 3. He fell down as slowly as a leaf
When light strikes a green leaf how does this explain why leaves appear green?
Light that is white contains all the colours. When the light hits the leaf, it absorbs all the colours apart from the green light which is reflected back out to your eyes. So you see the leaf as green.
What color of colors of light does the green leaf absorb?
A green leaf absorbs most colors of light except for green; it mainly absorbs red and blue light. The green color we see is reflected light, making the leaf appear green to our eyes.
What color is a leaf under red light?
A leaf appears black or very dark under red light because it primarily reflects green light, which is absent in red light. This phenomenon is due to the absorption and reflection of specific wavelengths of light by the pigments present in the leaf.
When white light shines on a green leaf why do you see green?
The green color of a leaf is due to the pigment chlorophyll, which absorbs most colors from white light except for green, which is reflected. This reflected green light is what our eyes perceive, making the leaf appear green.
