Absorption spectrum -
- 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.
