Why are plants generally green?

a

question 10 options:

a. the pigment chlorophyll absorbs green light waves

b. within the visible spectrum, plants prefer green wavelengths.

c. chlorophyll a and b, required for photosynthesis, is green.

d. the pigment chlorophyll reflects green light waves.

The correct answer is option D, "The pigment chlorophyll reflects green light waves"

The chloroplast with in the plants consists of chlorophyll (green colour pigment) which is highly absorbent to the long and short wavelengths such as red and blue wavelength of visible spectrum and reflects green wavelengths thereby producing green colour visualizations to the viewer. The two common chlorophyll usually found in the leaves are chlorophyll A and B. Chlorophyll A is majorly responsible for reflecting the green light

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
