Sunlight for photosynthesis
  1. The portion of light which is used in photosynthesis is called PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) also called white light / visible light (400-700nm)
    1. V
      1. 400nm
      2. I
        1. B
          1. G
            1. least useful
            2. Y
              1. O
                1. R
                  1. 700nm
                2. Photosynthetic Pigments
                  1. CHLOROPHYLLS
                    1. TYPES OF CHLOROPHYLL: a, b, c, d, e, bacteriochlorophyll
                      1. a
                        1. universal photosynthetic pigment
                          1. more amount
                            1. b
                        2. absorb both low and high wavelength light and participate directly in light reaction of photosynthesis
                        3. CAROTENOIDS
                          1. xanthopheles
                            1. yellow to brown
                            2. carotenes
                              1. yellow to red
                              2. absorb only low wavelength light and hand over the absorbed energy to chlorophyll
