Yellow- Green Wavelength of light at peak absorption of 565nm.

Halobacterium is known to be a member of Archaea and they thrive in very salty environment such as Great Salt lake and Dead Sea. Halobacteria under the process of photosynthesis with chlorophyll and they make their ATP from the sunlight using bacteriorhodopsin and halorhodopsin as photosynthetic pigments.

However, photosensory pigements found in Halabacterium were:

1. photosystem 565 which is used to respond to yellow –green light in other for cell to find optimum conditions for ATP synthesis and photophosphorylation and they have peak absorbtion at 565nm.

2. Photosystem 370 nm appears to be responsible for the protective avoidance of blue/UV light.

How do I get rid of my stretch marks? I am really insecure about them and I hate my body because of them
likoan [24]

By keeping your skin hydrated, you can help keep the elastin that your skin needs to keep from scarring. Using topical creams such as coconut oil will keep your skin moisturized and make stretch marks less likely. Even without treatment, almost all stretch marks will fade over time.
