The absorption spectrum is the graph plotting light absorption versus the wavelength of that light.
The absorption spectra of chloroplast pigments provide insight into the relative effectiveness of different wavelengths of light for driving photosynthesis.
Chlorophyll absorbs more of the blue-violet wavelength than the red.
The absorption spectrum is chiefly blue and red for chlorophyll.
Chlorophyll a absorbs more of a red wavelength than chlorophyll b.
Chlorophyll b absorbs more of the blue wavelength than chlorophyll a.
Action spectrum confirms the effectiveness of red wavelength.
- Photosynthesis is maximum in red light than blue light. It is minimum in green light. Hence, the correct answer is option c.
