Question
Chapter 50.3, Problem 4CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The similarities between the two photo systems that is; the retina in eye and chlorophyll in plant.
Concept introduction:
Retina absorbs the light which is helps in conversion of “cis retinal to the trans retinal”. This conversion paves the way for further reaction through which the action potential is generated which helps in visualizing the object.
In chlorophyll, photosystem II is generally used in utilizing the light energy and converting it into utilizable energy.

Can someone help me understand this.
A student set up an experiment to show the effect of light color on photosynthesis in Elodea plants. She filled two test tubes with distilled water and placed a piece of Elodea in each of the tubes. She added a drop of phenol red, which turns red in a basic solution and yellow in an acidic solution. She blew in each tube before placing the volumeters on the top of the tube. Why did she blow into the tube?
to add oxygen to the tube
to add carbon dioxide to the tube
to add carbohydrates to the tube
to add sodium bicarbonate to the tube
For photosynthesis lab in biology
1) This lab uses spinach leaves. Name another plant that would make an interesting comparison to spinach. Explain why you think this leaf would provide an interesting comparison
2) The lights used in this experiment are 60W. What would you predict the effect of having stronger or weaker wattage bulbs would be on your results? Explain.
3)This lab uses 0.2% sodium bicarbonate. What would you predict the effect of raising or lowering the percentage would be on your results? Explain.
4)What are TWO other things that might be manipulated in an experiment using this same protocol other than the type of leaf, percent sodium bicarbonate, and wattage of light bulb?
5) What key thing do you have to look for on the graph to know for certain that your treatment has caused a significant effect?
Briefly explain how photosystems (I and II) capture light using different photosystems.

- What properties of photosynthetic pigments allow pigments to absorb light of only certain wavelengths? Select all that apply. Some pigment molecules lack a light-trapping region. Light of any energy level can boost an electron of the pigment molecule to a higher energy level in order to be absorbed. Only light with the correct wavelength to boost an electron of the pigment to a higher energy level is absorbed. All pigment molecules possess a light-trapping region with a special structure that allows electrons to move freely between its atoms.arrow_forwardMAKE CONNECTIONS How do the CO2 moleculesused in photosynthesis reach and enter the chloroplastsinside leaf cells?
