Photosynthesis Action Spectrum
Hi.
Looking at a graph of light absorption, chlorophyll (a+b) appear to absorb at a peak of 642 and 662 nm in the red region. I'd guess that the action-spectrum would show maximum action at some point between these two wavelengths, however the graph I have shows the peak activity at around 690nm. What's the deal? If you had to use a red light with one specific wavelength, what would it be? Thanks. |
