Question

Which light range is the least effective for the process of photosynthesis?

Answer 1

Photosynthesis:

1. Photosynthesis is the process by which phototrophs or plants which require light for the preparation of food convert light energy into chemical energy, which is then used for cellular power. Sugars are used as a means of storing chemical energy.
2. Water and carbon dioxide are used to make them.
3. Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which are cellular organelles.
4. Chlorophyll, a green pigment found in such organelles, is responsible for the leaves' distinctive green color.

Greenlight range spectrum is considered as least effective for the process of photosynthesis:

1. The wavelength of green light is thought to be the least efficient for photosynthesis.
2. If the plants are exposed to green wavelengths during photosynthesis, the rate of photosynthesis will be the slowest.
3. This is due to the presence of chlorophyll, a green pigment.
4. Instead of being absorbed by the chlorophyll, the green light is transmitted and reflected.
5. The best visible light wavelengths for photosynthesis are blue (425–450 nm) and red (600–700 nm).
