Document Summary
Impressionism - art movement in 19th century characterized my use of small visible brush strokes that emphasized light and color rather than lines to de ne object. Uses unmixed pure colors. ex. putting yellow and blue in pure form on the canvas so they mingle in the eyes of the viewer and create the impression of green. Painted in open air, because they thought they could catch the sunlight. Cataract - vision-deteriorating disease where lens becomes opaque because of progressive degeneration of a protein that makes up the lens. Opaqueness absorbs certain wavelengths of light and decreases transmittance of blue light. Two functions of light: energy source and vision (info about surroundings). Chlomydomonas reihardtii has in each cell a chloroplast to make energy and a eyespot (light sensor) that senses light direction and light intensity. In both functions: light needs to be captured. Sun: by turning hydrogen into helium it converts matter into energy.
