This question is solved by your team. Please let me know the "c" part

Seedlings of understory trees in mature tropical rainforests must survive and grow using intermittent flecks of sunlight. How does the length of exposure to these flecks of sunlight (flleck duration) affect growth? Researchers experimentally irradiated seedlings of the Southeast Asian rainforest tree with flecks of light of varying duration while maintaining the same total irradiance to all the seedlings.
