1. photosynthesis is driven by the light spectrum.

o infrared
o visible
o microwave
o ultraviolet

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy. Chlorophyll, the pigment involved in photosynthesis, absorbs light mainly in the visible light spectrum (specifically red and blue - green wavelengths). Infrared light has longer wavelengths and is more related to heat. Microwaves have even longer wavelengths and are not used in photosynthesis. Ultraviolet light has shorter wavelengths and can be harmful to plant cells in high amounts.

Answer:

visible
