It is the part of electromagnetic radiation that can be used as the source of energy for photosynthesis by green plants. Percentage of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) that is captured by plants in synthesis of organic matter is about 1-2 % of incident solar energy.

Explanation:
In actuality, however, plants do not absorb all incoming sunlight (due to reflection, respiration requirements of photosynthesis and the need for optimal solar radiation levels) and do not convert all harvested energy into biomass, which results in a maximum overall photosynthetic efficiency of 3 to 6% of total solar radiation.
