Why does blue light cause a negative photosynthesis rate? (If algae is grown under blue light, why is the rate of photosynthesis slower than other colors?)


Sagot :

Blue photons drive the photosynthetic reaction, although from an energy standpoint, one might consider them less efficient than green or red photons because their high energy isn't fully utilized; some of the energy is essentially lost compared to photosynthetic photons with a longer (less energetic) wavelength.
