Explanation / Answer

When rate of physiological activity is plotted against wavelength of light then that is known as action spectrum.

Chlorophyll which absorbs energy from wavelength of orange-red and violet-blue light and is used in oxygenic photosynthesis is chlorophyll a.

Chlorophyll which absorbs energy from blue light and aids photosynthesis with light energy absorbance is known as chlorophyll b. It has greater solubility in polar solvents as compared to chlorophyll a.
