Emerson effect is associated with
Options
(a) respiration
(b) transpiration
(c) salt absorption
(d) photosynthesis
Correct Answer:
photosynthesis
Explanation:
Emerson (1943) discovered the existence of two photosystems (PSI and PSII). Emerson conducted experiments where he showed that in two wavelengths of light (i.e., one shorter and the other longer) there is a very high rate of photosynthesis. The enhancement of photosynthetic rate under influence of two wavelengths of light is called Emerson effect.
