Plants primarily use red and blue light for photosynthesis, as these wavelengths are most effective in driving the process. When exposed to green light, plants can still photosynthesize, but less efficiently since green light is mostly reflected rather than absorbed. This can lead to slower growth rates and reduced overall health compared to exposure to more optimal light wavelengths. However, some studies suggest that green light can penetrate deeper into the leaf tissue, potentially aiding in photosynthesis under certain conditions.
What else can I help you with?
Why grow lights for house plants are never green?
first off, plants are green meaning they dont absorb green wavelengths, they reflect it off which is what we see. secondly they need yellow/red colored light in order to perform photosynthesis since they absorb those colors. the sun viewed through our atmosphere appears yellow, not green.
Why green lights are bad for plants?
There is a reason why plants appear green. Inside a plant, the plastid chloroplast contains green pigment that reflects green light. This means that plants do not use green lights in large amounts (there are some other plastids that uses the color green, but there are few in number). So when you give plants green light, they cannot use it as efficient as they would if it was a different color.
A student exposed two plants to only red light and two plants to only green light. Which plant will grow best?
The plants exposed to red light will likely grow better. Red light is more essential for the process of photosynthesis, which is crucial for plant growth. Green light is reflected rather than absorbed by plants, so it may not support growth as effectively.
What leaf area does photosynthesis happen?
It is about green plants. It is happening in every single leaf alive.
Why would most plants not grow very well under only green light?
Most plants will grow in white light, as it is closer to blue light. Blue light is the light emitted from the sun for the majority of the day. Green light has a very small place on the spectrum and therefore does not appear much. However, if the plant is hardy, it may grow in any light or even no light.
What would most happen if green plants were exposed to less sunlight?
The chloroplasts would produce less energy.
What most likely happen if green plants were to exposed to longer days of sunlight?
The chloroplasts would produce more energy.
What would most like happen if green plants where exposed to less sunlight?
The plants will tend to grow lanky and weak, while the leaves will turn yellowish.
What would most likely happen if green plants were exposed to longer days sunlight?
The chloroplasts would produce more energy.
Why do plants turn brown when exposed to air?
Now that's strange. Most of the plants in my garden are green and they are all exposed to air.
What colour is produced if green plants are exposed to red light?
Chlorophyll is green and nothing will ever change that
Does photosynthesis happen in all plants?
no,photosynthesis do not happen in all plants because all plants do not have cholophyll . plants that are green have cholophyll. so
Does photosenthysis happen in things other than green plants?
no
Why does an onion turn green?
An onion turns green when exposed to sunlight because it produces chlorophyll, the green pigment that helps plants make food through photosynthesis.
What will happen if number of plants is reduced?
lead to green house effect
What would happen if there were only green plants?
there would be no exchange of gases
What would most likely to happen if green plpants were exposed to longer days of sunlight?
If green plants were exposed to longer days of sunlight, they would likely increase their rate of photosynthesis and growth. However, prolonged exposure to intense sunlight could potentially lead to sunburn, wilting, or damage to the plant's tissues. It is important for plants to maintain a balance between photosynthesis and protection from excessive sunlight.
