Question
Why or why not can solar induced fluorescence be used to infer net photosynthesis?
Expert Solution
arrow_forward
Step 1
Introduction :-
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants generate their own energy from the light of the sun. In this mechanism, chlorophyll, a green pigment, absorbs light and, through a chemical process, glucose is produced. Because glucose is a molecular type of energy, it is essential to food webs.

- What do you mean by photophoshorylation?arrow_forwardDifference between green and white revolution?arrow_forwardLight that the chlorophyll-a pigment uses may be measured by the solar-induced fluorescence (650-850nm). This fluorescence caused by the sun and a plant's gross primary output are correlated linearly. Why can solar induced fluorescence be used to infer net photosynthesis?arrow_forward
- What purpose does the thylakoid space serve during the light reactions of photosynthesis?arrow_forwardThoroughly explain all the steps of the light reaction of photosynthesis. Please also demonstrate using arrows what occur in each step.thank youarrow_forwardPhotosystems are essential to the light reactions. Which of the following is true about photosystems? a) Photosystems are embedded within membranes, across which they create a proton gradient. b) Photosystems work together to absorb light over a larger surface area than could be possible from just one pigment molecule working alone. c) Photosystems are composed of proteins and pigment molecules. d) All of the abovearrow_forward
