Absorption spectrum
... An absorption spectrum is a diagram depicting the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation absorbed by a material, usually a
gas . It can be regarded as the opposite to an emission spectrum , which is a depiction of the specific wavelengths emitted by a material.

gas and water to produce sugars and oxygen gas. The energy for these processes comes from photosynthesis. For instance, the over-all equation for the ...
Leaf
... It forms the boundary between the plant and the external world. The epidermis serves several functions: protection against water loss, regulation of
gas exchange, secretion of metabolic compounds, and (in some species) absorption of water. Most leraves show dorsoventral anatomy: the upper (adaxial) ...
