Photosynthesis

Formula for Photosynthesis: 
6 CO2 + 6 H2 C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Carbon dioxide + Water + Light energy → Glucose + Oxygen

Color: chloroplasts---->chlorophyll<-----green pigments, red, blue, yellow, and orange

Light: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet=White Light
 
(e.g. the color of a blue shirt means that all the other colors are being absorbed and the blue is reflected off which is the color that we see.)


-Green plant---->uses most of white light except green
-If a green plant is put in green light then it will no do much photosynthesis.
