Using different colored arrows, draw the visible light spectrum as it is absorbed and reflected during photosynthesis in a leaf of the plant. (I.E. Draw the arrow for what wavelenths are being absorbed/reflected by the pigments of the plant)
Which part of the leaf is responsible for gasses entering or leaving the leaf?
Thylakoid
Gas meristem
Stomata
Mesophyll
Of the selection given, select all that are correct parts of a leaf.
Mesophyll
Epidermis
Esophogus
Guard cell
Chloro-stationary cell
All of the following is a true statement about pigments EXCEPT for...
Chlorophyll is a type of pigment
Pigments absorb particular wavelengths of light
Photosynthesis uses the type of light that is reflected
