Question

Which best describes the light that plants transform into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis?

A.Green light
B.infrared light
C.ultraviolet light
D. red and blue light?

Answer 1

The right answer is D. red and blue light.

Most oxygenated photosynthetic organisms use visible light, however, they are only active at certain wavelengths (i.e. they absorb these wavelengths by their photosynthetic pigments) for chlorophyll a , the spectrum of action includes blues and reds (wavelengths around 440 and 680nm), other pigments absorbing other wavelengths such as chlorophyll b, xanthophylls, or even carotenoids, play a role in photosynthesis, some photosynthetic organisms use the near infrared or, more particularly, the far red (around 800 nm wavelength).

Answer 2

"Red and blue light" is the one among the following choices given in the question that best describes the light that plants transform into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis. the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the fourth option or option "D". I hope it helps you.
