Electromagnetic energy, in the form of light, travels in wavelengths and is measured in nanometres (nm). Pigments within matter, such as plants, absorb varying wavelengths of light. The absorption spectrum can be defined as a graphical representation of a pigment’s ability to absorb light against varying wavelengths (nm). The pigments light absorbing ability is measured …
Stoichiometry and Limiting Reagents Theodore A. Bieniosek I.

LIGHT IN PHOTOSYNTHESIS Theory: Leaf discs float normally. When the air spaces are infiltrated with the solution the overall density of the leaf disc increases and the disc sinks. The infiltration solution includes a small amount of sodium bicarbonate. The bicarbonate ions serve as the carbon source for photosynthesis. As photosynthesis proceeds oxygen is released …
Moral Philosophy “Principles or rules that people use to decide what is right or wrong” 1.
