Do you think plants will grow well under green light? Explain your reasoning.
Look at leaves of the same plant on the shady side and compare it with the leaves on
the sunny side. Or, compare the potted plants kept in the sunlight with those in the
shade. Which of them has leaves that are darker green? Why?
You place a plant alone in a covered airtight container in the presence of sunlight. Assume a watering system is provided. What will happen to the plant (will it live or die), and why?
