Hi there,

That is a question which is deeper than it may first appear. Mmm. I would go with dark being the absence of light, since light is actually something (electromagnetic waves).

ANSWER: Light as we see it has all the spectrum colors that we can detect or frequency in essence. dark or black is the lack of these frequency or below our detection by our eyes

How long will dark reactions run in the absence of light?

Dark reactions can continue to run in the absence of light since they are not dependent on light energy for their process. These reactions, such as the Calvin cycle, use the products of the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into sugar molecules. Therefore, they can occur in the dark as long as the necessary molecules and enzymes are present.

What would happen if light was not invented?

If light was not invented, life as we know it would be drastically different. The absence of light would lead to extreme darkness, affecting plant growth, animal behavior, and human activities. It would also impact the study of science and technology due to the absence of electromagnetic radiation.


Can you create black fire?

No, it is not possible to create black fire. Fire is a chemical reaction that emits light and heat, and the color of the flame is determined by the temperature and the elements present in the reaction. Black fire would not be possible because black is the absence of light, so a flame cannot emit black light.

What is the absence of color?

Jet black.Black.ADDED BY JACOBM1198:Actually, white is the absence of color. Many people think that black is the absence of color because they think it is the absence of light, but it isn't true. Black absorbs all light and all color, which is why it is dark and less reflective than white, which reflects all light and color. Therefore, white is the absence of color. People, please don't answer questions you don't know.By the way, "jet black" is generally described as a shiny black color, so even if black WAS the absence of color, that would be wrong.


What gas would be released by plants if there was no light present?

Which hypothesis would most likely be tested most using this setup?

plant grow best in the absence of light


What will happen if light did not exist?

Without light, there would be no visibility, as vision is dependent on light for perception. Plants would not be able to photosynthesize, leading to a loss of the primary source of energy for many organisms. The absence of light would also disrupt various ecosystems and natural processes that rely on light for survival.
