Spectrum Absorption Action Describe Difference Graph Wavelengths Light

This card explains the difference between an absorption spectrum and an action spectrum: an absorption spectrum shows which wavelengths of light are absorbed by pigments, while an action spectrum shows the rate of photosynthesis at each wavelength.

Bu kart, absorpsiyon spektrumu ile eylem spektrumu arasındaki farkı açıklar: absorpsiyon spektrumu pigmentlerin hangi dalga boylarını emdiğini gösterirken, eylem spektrumu her dalga boyundaki fotosentez oranını gösterir.

Front Describe the difference between an absorption spectrum graph and an action spectrum graph.
Back Absorption vs action spectrum:
  • Absorption spectrum indicates wavelengths of light absorbed by each pigment
  • Action spectrum indicates overall rate of photosynthesis at each wavelength
