Difference between Electromagnetic radiation and Non-photochemical quenching

Electromagnetic radiation vs. Non-photochemical quenching

In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space-time, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy. Non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) is a mechanism employed by plants and algae to protect themselves from the adverse effects of high light intensity.

Similarities between Electromagnetic radiation and Non-photochemical quenching

Electromagnetic radiation and Non-photochemical quenching have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Chlorophyll, Excited state, Fluorescence, Photosynthesis, Radiant energy.

Chlorophyll

Chlorophyll (also chlorophyl) is any of several related green pigments found in cyanobacteria and the chloroplasts of algae and plants.

Excited state

In quantum mechanics, an excited state of a system (such as an atom, molecule or nucleus) is any quantum state of the system that has a higher energy than the ground state (that is, more energy than the absolute minimum).

Fluorescence

Fluorescence is the emission of light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation.

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities (energy transformation).

Radiant energy

In physics, and in particular as measured by radiometry, radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic and gravitational radiation.

The list above answers the following questions

Electromagnetic radiation and Non-photochemical quenching Comparison

Electromagnetic radiation has 232 relations, while Non-photochemical quenching has 22. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 1.97% = 5 / (232 + 22).
