Which of the following statements is incorrect? a. Pigments absorb light of certain wavelengths only. b. Many accessory pigments are multipurpose molecules. c. Chlorophyll a is green because it absorbs green light.

Compare photo litho autotrophy with chemo-organo heterotrophy. Sun light is the ultimate source of energy and all living organisms obtain their energy directly or indirectly from the sun. However in deep-sea vents (where there is no sun light) life has originated and the many groups of microorganisms are flourishing in such environment. How? Explain your reasoning
Which of the following is an organism that obtains its energy from the transfer of electrons originating from chemical compounds and its carbon from an inorganic source such as CO2? photoautotroph Chemoheterotroph Chemoautotroph Photoheterotroph
Phycobiliproteins are complex proteins in cyanobacteria that absorb light energy. There are three different kinds of phycobiliprotein molecules used to pass light to chlorophyll: phycoerythrin is responsible for capturing green light, phycocyanin is responsible for capturing orange-red light, and allophycocyanin is responsible for capturing red light. Since light can only penetrate to certain depths in oceans, phycobiliproteins capture the light available and pass it through various pathways of phycobiliproteins until the emitted light is red, which is absorbed by chlorophyll.

Different bacteria have evolved many different light-absorbing pigments. Why is this advantageous to bacteria in the environment (as opposed to if all bacteria used the same pigment)?
