Term
| Explain Engelmann's Experiment.[image] |
|
Definition
| The bacteria grows in the Blue and Red light spectrums because the algae gives off oxygen because they carry out photosynthesis using the blue and spectrums. This experiment shows that green plants absorb red and blue light and reflect green light. |

|
Definition
| plant that opens their stomata at night and close them during the day like cactus and pineapples. carbon dioxide is fixed to special organic molecules during the night and released during the day |
