Which light would stimulate the greates level of photsysynethic activity?

The higher the frequency of light the greater its energy, so gamma rays and cosmic ray would accomplish the greatest amount of work. However I believe this question is directed towards plant photosynthesis. So.... Plants on earth have adapted their photosynthetic pigments to be the most active in that frequency of light from the sun that has the most abundant energy to offer. The sun does emit high energy radiation but very little of it. Most of the radiation above the Ultra-violet is shielded by the Earth's atmosphere anyways so there is no use going after that. There is lots of energy in the lower UV that does make it to the surface of the Earth (as any sunburned sunbather will attest) but there isn't very much of it. The most abundant light from the sun is in the yellow range and that is the colour range that plants primarily exploit.


What is energy-rich products for light phase?

Energy-rich products for the light phase of the day could include foods with a combination of complex carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats such as whole grains, nuts and seeds, lean proteins, fruits, and vegetables. This combination can provide sustained energy levels, promote focus and productivity, and prevent energy crashes. It's also important to stay hydrated and consider incorporating foods rich in vitamins and minerals to support overall energy levels.


This reaction requires direct energy of the sunlight to make energy carrier molecules?

The process described is photosynthesis, which occurs in plants and some bacteria. Photosynthesis uses sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (energy carrier) and oxygen. The energy from sunlight is captured by chlorophyll in plant cells and used to drive this chemical reaction.

What happens when the supply energy-rich molecules in a muscle is used up?

When the supply of energy-rich molecules in a muscle is used up, the muscle is unable to continue contracting efficiently. This leads to muscle fatigue and a decrease in performance. To replenish these molecules, the body needs to produce more energy through processes like cellular respiration or by utilizing energy sources from the bloodstream.

How do chloroplastids differ from chromoplastids?

Chloroplastids are meant to capture solar energy for photosynthesis whereas chromoplastids provide various types of pigmentation to the plant parts radiating energy rich wavelengths of sunlight.


The cellular process where autotrophs take in light energy and carbon dioxide and make carbon rich food which consumers eat?

The cellular process by which autotrophs take in light energy and carbon dioxide and make carbon rich food for consumers is known as photosynthesis. Most organisms also produce oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis.


What energy-rich compounds do the light reactions produce?

The light reactions of photosynthesis produce energy-rich compounds like ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). These molecules carry and provide energy for the subsequent dark reactions of photosynthesis.


The process that converts light energy to chemical energy?

The process that converts light energy to chemical energy is called photosynthesis. This occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where light energy is used to synthesize glucose from carbon dioxide and water. The chlorophyll pigment in plants captures the light energy and initiates the series of chemical reactions that produce this energy-rich compound.


Are fats in food a rich source of energy?

Yes fats are the most calorific energy source.

The use of light energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into energy-rich glucose molecules are called what?

The process you are referring to is called photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, plants use light energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. This process is essential for the survival of plants and provides the foundation for most ecosystems on Earth.


What is the difference between light and dark photosynthesise?

The light is used for photolysis of water and converting the radiant energy into chemical energy. These energy rich compounds during dark reaction assimilate carbon from carbon dioxide to form carbohydrates.


What is the most energy rich nutrient?

The most energy rich nutrient is fat. There are two other nutrients that produce energy for the body and they are protein and carbohydrates.


What is the signification of ATP and NADPH?

Both are energy rich compounds generated during light reaction of photosynthesis and help in transfer of energy to synthesize the carbohydrates.
