The green color of plants is explained by the wavelengths of light that are reflected, transmitted, and absorbed by the chlorophylls in the thylakoids. Which of the following statements is true? Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit yellow and green wavelengths of light, and absorb red and violet-blue wavelengths of light. Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit red and blue wavelengths of light, and absorb yellow and green wavelengths of light. Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit red and blue wavelengths of light, and absorb white wavelength of light. Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit white wavelength of light, and absorb red and violet-blue wavelengths of light

Diagram 3: Light Wave Absorption of Chlorophyll a and b. Chlorophyll a Chlorophyll b 400 450 500 550 600 650 700 Wavelength (nm) Plant chlorophyll chemicals will absorb, or take in, light wave energy in order to produce their own organic molecules used for cellular energy. Reflected light refers to those wavelengths of light that will "bounce off" of the chlorophyll and not be absorbed. Select the conclusion that most accurately summarizes the data in diagram 3. Red and blue light waves have equal importance during photosynthesis. The majority of light energy is attained from red light, while the blue light waves provide additional light energy to photosynthesis. The majority of light energy is attained from blue light, while the red light waves provide additional light energy to photosynthesis. Medium length light waves are important to photosynthesis Absorption
Phycobiliproteins are complex proteins in cyanobacteria that absorb light energy. There are three kinds of phycobiliprotein molecules used to pass light to chlorophyll: phycoerythrin-responsible for capturing green light, phycocyanin-responsible for capturing orange-red light, and allophycocyanin-responsible for capturing red light. Since light can only penetrate to certain depths in oceans, phycobiliproteins capture the light available and pass it through various pathways of phycobiliproteins until the emitted light is red, which is absorbed by chlorophyll.

Rubisco can bind with CO2 or 02. When it binds with O2, it "wastes" some of the energy captured from the sun. This reaction is photorespiration and is favored at high temperatures and low CO2:02 ratios. Which of the following strategies should limit photorespiration (select all that apply). Keep stomata closed. Keep stomata open. Physically separate the light and light-independent reactions. Temporally separate CO2 uptake and fixation.
If you provided your shade-tolerant plants with their preferred wavelength of light, but only minimal amounts of water, which of the following would you expect to occur? increased plant growth decreased amounts of ATP being produced by the plants increased amounts of oxygen released by the plants increased growth of the plants’ leaves
Green colors in plants are produced by the presence of: Pigments called chlorophylls a and b located in the chloroplasts. Pigments called chlorophylls a and b located in cell vacuoles. Pigments called carotenoids located in the chloroplasts. Pigments called anthocyanins located in cell vacuoles.
Which of the following statements is incorrect? a. Pigments absorb light of certain wavelengths only. b. Many accessory pigments are multipurpose molecules. c. Chlorophyll a is green because it absorbs green light.
What stages of the light-dependent reactions occur prior to the buildup of hydrogen ions in the thylakoid compartment? Select all that apply. Energy emitted by the electron transport chain triggered by PSII generates a hydrogen ion gradient across the thylakoid membrane. PSII pulls replacement electrons from water molecules, which then break apart into oxygen atoms and hydrogen ions. A photosystem II (PSII) absorbs light energy and releases an electron. Electrons released from PSII enter an electron transport chain in the thylakoid membrane. A flow of hydrogen ions causes ATP synthase to phosphorylate ATP.
Why do plants appear green? They reflect green light. They pass green light to accessory pigments. They mix blue and red light. They absorb green light.
Explain the mechanism of why leaves are green during the spring and summer but turn beautiful colors each fall. Include light absorption and reflections well as specific plant pigments involved.
Which of the following scenarios happens during the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis? Oxygen gas is produced in the thylakoid lumen by the oxidation of water by photosystem I. Ferrodoxin and NADP+ reductase participates in the reduction of NADP+ to NADPH. Carbon dioxide enters the plants via stomata. Rubisco attaches three molecules of ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) to one molecule of carbon dioxide.
