0:00 Hello everyone.

00:01 So basically we know that on earth there is a process called photosynthesis.

00:10 That is very much important.

00:12 And this occurs in plants where we find that the light energy is basically converted into chemical energy.

00:23 Chemicals.

00:26 So this is the conversion of energy.

00:29 And this process is carried out in the chlorophyll, chlorophyll, which is a green pigment found in the plants.

00:43 And also the photosynthesis is a process in which the sunlight is captured and this light comes from the sun.

00:54 So this basically the sunlight which is captured by the plants itself now if we check for the photosynthetic pigments photo synthetic pigments there are several photosynthetic pigments and their absorption spectrum whether it is a, b or c and the last one is the leaf, okay? that is d, e or f.

01:33 So if we check over here, the first one is chlorophyll a and b.

01:41 So the first photosynthetic pigment is chlorophyll and where we consider a and b.

01:50 So for a spectrum is a.

01:54 For a spectrum is also a.

01:59 And its absorption range is actually 430nm and 662nm.

02:11 And for chlorophyll b, the spectrum is b.

02:19 And its absorption range is 5, actually 453, 453, 453 nanometers, and 6 4 2 nanometers.

02:35 Okay.

02:36 And the leaf they belong is d...
