1. Chlorophyll B
Chlorophyll b is an accessory pigment that promotes plants to
absorb light utilised for energy. Chlorophyll b is yellow in colour
it absorbs red and violet light.
2. Anthocyanins
Anthocyanins are water soluble and persist in the vacuole of a
plant. These accessory pigments occur in all tissues of higher
plants including roots, flowers, leaves, fruits and stems.
Anthocyanins are purple, red and blue in colour they originally
absorb blue, green and blue-green light
3. Xanthophylls
Xanthophylls accessory pigments include oxygen and are essentially
oxidized carotenoids. these do not absorb energy as well as
carotenoids. Xanthophylls are red and yellow in colour and absorb
blue light.
4. Carotenoids
Carotenoids are the primary pigments in fruits and flowers. These
pigments are hydrophobic and exist in lipid membranes; Carotenoids
are red, yellow or orange in colour and originally absorb blue
light.

-Give a brief background on the role of pigments in photosythensis. -state your hypothesis. -finish with stating the rationale for your hypothesis (how did you arrive at these hypothesis?) this is an introduction piece, so it doesn't need the results to write the papee. introduction sections set up the background, purpose, rationale, and hypothesis for a study. Biod 20 PHOTOSYNTHESIS Background Plants harness the energy of the sun through a process called photosynthesis. The leaf is the plant organ that...
Certain pigments found in cells take on different colors depending upon the pH of their environment. For example, betacyanin (responsible for the red color in beets) and a variety of anthocyanins (responsible for the colors in many flowers) appear colored only under acidic conditions. In neutral or basic conditions, they are colorless. These pigments are usually found concentrated within the vacuoles of cells, where they are colored. From this, you can rightly surmise that the interior of a vacuole is...
Question 3. (25 points) Consider the B+ tree index shown below. Each intermediate node can hold up to five pointers and four key values. Each leaf can hold up to four records, and leaf nodes are doubly linked as usual, although these links are not shown in the figure. If you can borrow from or merge with both siblings, choose the right sibling. Answer the following questions 3080 I1 35425065 9098 12 68 69 70 79 98 99 1001105 30...
Welcome to our plant sciences department here at TransBiol It's great to have you as an intern. I'm the lead scientist of a team developing new herbicides to use against invasive plant species. The team has been really swamped with work, so it'll be great to have some help analyzing all the data we're collecting. Since it's your first day, a great way to get started with any research project is to brush up on the background knowledge you'll need...
1. A. Name the three planes and the positions they each describe to identify a unique position in the human body. B. Name the two major ventral body cavities plus the major organs found in them. C. Name the cavities that the heart and lungs reside in. D. Finally, list the six levels of organization in nature. 2. A. Describe the three components of an atom in terms of charge and location. Define atomic mass and atomic number. B. For...
Macro algae, or seaweeds are classified in 3 large groups based on their photosynthetic pigment colors. Which two groups are more closely related to each other and to land plants? green algae and brown algae green algae and red algae red algae and brown algae 2.The simplest and most evolutionarily ancient primary producers are: diatoms cyanobacteria (AKA bluegreen algae) unicellular algae plants dinoflagellates Ocean water is salty because there are ions (salts) dissolved in the water. What are the 2...
