Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C Phytochrome
Phytochrome is the pigment involved in many light dependent plant responses, like flowering and seed germination. Action spectra and photo-reversibility experiments show that phytochrome is the pigment that detects the red light. In the case of phytochrome-mediated responses, like seed germination, red/far-red photo-reversibility occurs and phytochrome is activated on exposure to red light and deactivated on exposure to far red light.
