Percentage of photosynthetically active radiation(PAR) that is captured by plants in synthesis of organic matter is?

  1. $50-70\%$
  2. $30-40\%$
  3. $80-100\%$
  4. $2-10\%$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

About $1-5\%$ of incident solar energy or $2-10\%$ of PAR is captured by the photosynthetic organisms for the synthesis of organic matter(Gross primary productivity). Roughly $20\%$ of it is consumed in respiration so that net capture of energy(net primary productivity) is $0.8-4\%$ of incident radiation or $1.6-8\%$ of PAR.
