Chapter 21, Problem 19P
Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The spectral properties of accessory light-harvesting pigments in plants.

Introduction:

The radiant energy spectrum whose intensity at every wavelength is a measure of the energy passed via selectively absorbing substance at that wavelength is absorption spectrum.

What is the key role of light energy in the initial step of thephotosynthetic light reactions?
If plants described in problem 4 are illuminated by a combination of light of 680 nm and 700 nm, the oxygen production exceeds that of either wavelength alone. Explain.
After reading the "Light-harvesting structures in leaves" section, explain the difference between an absorption spectrum for a pigment and an action spectrum for a leaf.
