Why do you think P-waves and S-waves are also called body waves? Explain..

Biology

Liula [17]3 years ago

Body waves are two types: compressional or primary (P) waves and shear or secondary (S) waves. P- and S- waves are called “body waves” because they can travel through the interior of a body such as Earth’s inner layers, from the focus of an earthquake to distant points on the surface.

Ii) Explain briefly how these features contribute to the efficiency of photosynthesis?<br><br>​
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

here's your answer

Explanation:

the estimated maximum energy efficiency of photosynthesis is the energy stored per mole of oxygen evolved, 117/450, or 26 percent.

Consequently, plants can at best absorb only about 34 percent of the incident sunlight. The actual percentage of solar energy stored by plants is much less than the maximum energy efficiency of photosynthesis. An agricultural crop in which the biomass (total dry weight) stores as much as 1 percent of total solar energy received on an annual areawide basis is exceptional, although a few cases of higher yields (perhaps as much as 3.5 percent in sugarcane) have been reported. There are several reasons for this difference between the predicted maximum efficiency of photosynthesis and the actual energy stored in biomass. First, more than half of the incident sunlight is composed of wavelengths too long to be absorbed, and some of the remainder is reflected or lost to the leaves
