-Artificial light and Photosynthesis- by Emelyn Baldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d Can you grow a plant under artificial light, and does it affect the plant's growth? en-us 2022-02-25 19:58:41 UTC 2022-03-02 03:24:50 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f3f5.png How are Artificial light and Photosynthesis related? emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2066945753 Since plants cannot move and rely on the sun for energy, they can adapt to their surroundings. Some plants are even able to be kept inside your house with artificial light. Specific colors are better for the growth of plants. Some lights, like yellow and green rays, reflect off leaves. This means that the plant won't get enough light energy from the artificial light. Some artificial light can mimic the suns wavelength, helping plans gain the same amount of energy.]]> 2022-02-25 20:03:47 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2066945753 How does this topic relate to waves? emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2066947963 LED lights have a certain wavelength that can almost replicate the suns waves. The lights must reach this length to be able to supply energy for the plants. Most common light used is red or blue light. These wavelengths are larger and aren't as harsh as its counterparts. ]]> 2022-02-25 20:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2066947963 emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2069999299 2022-02-28 17:54:10 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2069999299 History of the process emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070001949 Artificial light has been used to grow plants since 150 years ago. The only question was, which type of light is best for the plant. After extensive research, it was found that LED lights are best for plants since they replicate the sun's rays. This was researched because farmers were struggling to keep crops alive during the winter.]]> 2022-02-28 17:55:43 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070001949 emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070004615 2022-02-28 17:57:08 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070004615 Real World Example -1- emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070022803 Research shows that Lettuce grown under red light influences the stem of the plant. The stem of this plant is a light-dependent process which means that different types of light will have a certain effect on the plant. This is important because it means that scientists can now naturally change foods to feed more people or make them more accessible. This means that people with disabilities can eat some foods better and we can naturally make foods larger and able to feed more people.]]> 2022-02-28 18:07:17 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070022803 emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070025340 Lettuce grown under red light.]]> 2022-02-28 18:08:35 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070025340 Real world example -2- emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070041422 The medicinal plant know as cat whiskers has been experimented on. Research shows that when the plant was exposed to artificial light with a high irradiance, the plant lacked important metabolites. Metabolites are important for the reproduction of plants. Using this information, we can grow these important plants faster which helps the medical community. This plant is used to cure respiratory diseases in southeast Asia.]]> 2022-02-28 18:17:23 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070041422 emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070043009 The cat whiskers plant.]]> 2022-02-28 18:18:13 UTC https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2070043009 Work Cited emelyngbaldi https://padlet.com/emelyngbaldi/69l0kdh3dlcx7s0d/wish/2072754417 History
