1.	Question : What can we conclude from the statement that the action and absorption spectrum of phtosynthetic overlaps? At which wavelength do they show peaks. ?
Answer» Solution :ABSORPTION Spectrum This depicts the absorption of light of different wavelenght by chlorophyll-a,b,xanthophyll and carotenoids. Action Spectrum This shows the rate of photosynthesis in the plant in the light of different wavelenghts. Super IMPOSED Absorption and Action Spectrum When we superimposed both action and absorption spectrum, it shows that in the region of red and blue light, the chlorophyll-a and b harness the MAXIMUM light ENERGY and are the main photosynthetic pigments.
