If someone has the knowledge of enhancement effect then he will come to know that although rate of photosynthesis is higher maximum in red light then followed by blue and then other colors but when they are given together the rate increases.

Interesting point is that suppose we have rate unit as simple number e.g, for red 2 and for blue 3 and when they are given together it should be 2+3=5 but interestingly it will greater than 5.
i.e, 6 or something else greater than 5 this is called enhancement effect.

Hopefully, I could explain the fact behind the answer white light is the correct answer and one-word explanation is enhancement effect.

You are absolutely right @Aaheli Ghosh.

Rate is maximum in red light.

While photosynthesis is maximum in blue color.

The correct answer is red as photosynthesis rate is fastest in blue and red light.

Red light is the best for plants.

White light is the combinataion of all lights. So white light is the right answer. It's sum of all lights.

Red light is the right answer.

I think it is red light.

I also think it's red.

Why it's white light? why not yellow or red light?
