How Plant Pigments Capture Light
Description
Photosynthesis uses light energy from the sun, which is a form of electromagnetic radiation. The full range of possible wavelengths is called the electromagnetic spectrum. Light is made of photons, which are small packets of energy. Photons act like waves and are described by frequency, wavelength, and amplitude.

A energia para a fotossíntese é a luz, tipicamente a radiação eletromagnética do sol, que se comporta como partículas, pacotes discretos de energia chamados fotões, e ondas que oscilam ao longo de um caminho. A distância entre dois pontos consecutivos, o comprimento de onda específico, relaciona-se com a quantidade de energia que as ondas carreg...
