Englemann passed the light of different wavelengths to the different part of alga by using a microscope that had prism. He kept the aerobic bacteria within the alga. He noticed that the accumulation of aerobic bacteria to that portion of alga which got blue and red light was higher than any other region of algal body. This was because that portion of alga which got blue and red light showed maximum rate of photosynthesis, hence liberated maximum oxygen. The rate of photosynthesis in blue and red light was high because the chlorophyll molecule absorb the light of specific wavelengths (that correspond to blue and red light) . Light of all wavelengths is not absorbed by chlorophyll. Since the bacteria was aerobic they accumulated within that region. The distribution of chloroplast was same for every segment of alga.
So the option A and B is correct. Option C is incorrect.
