Yes
Plants react to light in the visible spectrum differently.
-Plants like to grow in blue or red light, but not so much in green light.
-Plants also have the ability to grow towards a light source (this is mediated by auxin a plant hormone)
-Plants Germination is dependent on the sequence of light (Red-Far red- Dark = no germination, where Red- Far red- red- dark = germination)
As well, the interaction of plants with other plants plays a role. For example, if one plant blocks the light of another plant, or if neighboring plants out compete the plant for space.
Some people believe plants can interact with music, and even with human emotions. I on the other hand am skeptical. Technically speaking you could ramp up sound levels to points where the plant is shredded, but I don't think Classical Music will have an effect.
Yes, color does affect plant growth. Colors are simply different wavelengths of light that are reflected by objects back. For example, plants look green because they have a lot of chloroplast in them, which absorbs all visible wavelengths of light except green, so leaves look green to us.
Different colors are associated with encouraging different parts of plants to grow. Blue light will allow the plant to grow leaves and other vegetation and red light with blue allows the plant to grow flowers. The plant does not absorb the green light so does not use it to grow.
yes plants do actually plants grow better under red and white light than any other color.
no but they do have different effects white is best because it contains the most spectrum, if you want to change their color dye the water you use in it
yes
Leaves have different colors because of their pigmentation. For example, chlorophyll is the pigment that gives leaves the color of green.
Fungi is a type of autotroph (which will produce its own food). This type produces its own food with the help of sunlight,like plants this also contains chloroplast. Hence some fungi are green in colour.
Only certain plants grow toward light ex. sunflowers some plants like tomatoes grow like the topsy turvey thing hangs tomatoes upside down they grow down not up and most time the light comes from the opposite way they are growing
Fluorescent light works for most of plants and even aquarium fish. But when it comes to special races of plants, such as mariguana or some philotherms, HPS or MH can achieve a better effect. Check the link below for more detail about fluorescent light.
they include: temprature water aviabilty soil type pressure of the area and geography (like mountanious, planes, valleys etc.)
Anthocyanin is a pigment in some plants (like blueberries) that absorbs all other colors of light in the light spectrum and reflects blue light.
The light you see outside does not look like it, but it contains all of the colors of the rainbow.so plants take in the frequency of which it takes in.
The index of refraction varies for different colors of light (i.e., for different wavelengths or frequencies), therefore, a source of white light, like rays from the Sun, can get separated into their components. White light isn't "pure" (monochromatic) light - it is really a mixture of many different colors.
White light is made up of different colors. When white light enters water (like moisture in the air) it is bent (refracted). However the different colors are bent (refracted) by different amounts. So this different amount of bending has the effect of separating the white light into its colors and we see this as a rainbow.lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
how do you make your background on your myspace light up like changing colors please tell me. Send me an email at-quiahja407214@yahoo.com please
Colors like white and yellow are example of light colors while colors like black and brown are example of dark colors.
There are two situations where plants can survive without chlorophyll.The first is with the parasitic plant. Most plants photosynthesize their food, which is why they appear green. However, some plans, like broom-rape, dwarf mistletoe, and dodder, steal sap from plants that do photosynthesize instead. These plants don't photosynthesize their food, so they don't appear green. Broom-rape, in fact, doesn't appear above the ground at all except to create flowers.The second is on another planet. Different planets have atmospheres made of different chemicals, and they orbit different stars that give off different wavelengths of light. This means the colors of the light that reaches the planets' surfaces will be different as well, and plants on these worlds will try to use the most common of these colors. On Earth, for example, the most common colors are red and blue, and chlorophyll absorbs those two colors and reflects green light; that's why plants on Earth appear green. However, on another planet where the most abundant colors on the surface are, say, blue and green, the plants there will use chemicals other than chlorophyll to capture that light, and the red light will get reflected, so the plants will appear red to our eyes. These plants may benefit from chlorophyll, but they wouldn't need it to survive.

light energy helps things grow like plant or different types of plants like flowers and other things

Darker colors like violet and blue actually have the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequency. If you look at the visible spectrum, the order from highest to lowest would go violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red.
That is called refraction. I like to remember it by the fraction part of the word, as the light is being split into different colors, each a fraction of the whole.
