Why is chlorophyll not able to capture the energy in green light​

Biology
1 answer:
mariarad [96]3 years ago
8 0

All plants have chlorophyll-a which blocks(reflects) green light and absorbs red and blue wavelengths. It seems like it would be more efficient for plants to absorb green light since energy is most powerful from the sun through green wavelengths. However, the chlorophyll-a in chloroplasts actually defend the plant from harmful damage of the TREMENDOUS amount of power from the sun transmitted in green wavelengths.

SO CHLOROPHYLL-A PROTECTS PLANTS FROM TOO MUCH ENERGY IN GREEN LIGHT.

Cilia are very small hair-like, membrane-bound cell structures. They are present on the surface of many eukaryotic cells.

Marsh or Wetland ecosystem is highlighted as “biological super systems” as it is responsible to manufacture giant volume of meal that favors large amount of biodiversity, which is rich as rain forests and local reefs. The combination of important nutrients, shallow water and large primary productivity is basic source for Earth's food web. For example such food web is supported by birds, shellfish, fish, amphibians and insects. This ecosystem helps filtration of pollutants and soil runoff from the upstream sources which in return support river, ocean and bays in cleaning downstream.
