The Electromagnetic spectrum is just a name for the range of ALL possible frequencies of electromagnetic radiation. The "electromagnetic spectrum" of an object has a different meaning‚ and is instead the characteristic distribution of electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by that particular object. The spectrum extends from below the low frequencies used for modern radio‚ to gamma radiation at the short-wavelength (or high-frequency) end‚ therefore covering wavelength for

The electromagnetic spectrum The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is just a name that scientists give a bunch of types of radiation when they want to talk about them as a group. Radiation is energy that travels and spreads out as it goes‚ visible that comes from a lamp in your house and radio waves that come from a radio station are two types of electromagnetic radiation. Other examples of EM radiation are microwaves‚ infrared and ultraviolet light‚ X-rays and gamma-rays. Hotter‚ more energetic

an example of an electromagnetic spectrum‚ which is all wavelengths of light both seen and unseen (Trefil & Hazen‚ 2010). The display of the electromagnetic spectrum showed gamma rays‚ X-rays‚ ultraviolet light‚ infrared‚ visible light‚ microwave‚ radio waves‚ as well as a visible spectrum wavelength (Trefil & Hazen‚ 2010). The diagram shows at what frequency and wavelength each wave moves and what it allows us to see‚ hear‚ and feel with visible light and/or specialized equipment‚ and

The Effect of Light Intensity The effect of different light wavelengths was tested in the following experiment. The rate of photosynthesis can be affected depending on the light treatment it receives. With the aid of DPIP acting as NADPH in photosynthesis‚ it was possible to observe the reaction as it took place. Samples were created with dark‚ 24 cm‚ 30 cm‚ and 49 cm light treatments. The absorbance was measured in five-minute intervals for each sample and recorded in an appropriate table

Effect of Different Microwave Doses on Vicia faba Germination‚ Growth and Genetic makeup Problem: Some areas are affected by high frequencies of microwaves; this affects plant growth‚ germination and genetic makeup‚ which leads to a loss in crop yield‚ including one of the major crops of high economic importance‚ the Vicia faba. Abstract: Plants and their stresses have been of very great importance lately. Since there are many kinds of stresses‚ we only studied one‚ but a very important

BEAN LAB My hypothesis was the white beans would stand out but the black and green beans would be camouflage. For my prediction I said that if the predator consumes more white beans than black. Therefor‚ the white bean population will decrease. In the “beetles” environment the predominant colors are brown‚ green‚ black and tan; and the predominant colors for beans being brown‚ black‚ green and white. Knowing the predominant colors of the environment and of the “beetles” would show that the white
