“Watennelon snow” in Antarctica is caused by a species of photosynthetic green algae that thrives in subzero temperatures (Chlamydomonas nivalis). These algae areaalsofound in high- altitude year-round snowfields. In both locations, UV light levels tend to be high. Based on what you learned in this chapter, proposc an explanation for why thisphotosyntheticalga appears reddish-pink.

- What are 5 different examples of cold light in a bioluminescent bacteria/chemicals/etc.in a normal situation? What are 5 different examples of blue light in a bioluminescent bacteria/chemicals/etc.in a normal situation? How many photons of light emitted by a dinoflagellate per second in it's normal/usual environement and situation? How could the amount of photons of light produced by a dinoflagellate per second differ in an unusual environement and situation? Does it change at all?arrow_forwardA- This is a microscopy image of a club moss (Lycopodiaceae) strobilus. B- In this image, the strobilus carries different types of spores. 500 µmarrow_forwardWhat type of bioluminscence produces 1000 photons of light per second in a normal situation without predators? What are some other types of bioluminescent bactirium and how much light do they produce in a normal situation? How many photons are emited by luciferin and luciferase in a normal situation? Amount of light emited per amount of bacterium.arrow_forward
- An organism is a mixotroph loses its plastids, it survives because of which reason; 1. It has an endospore and becomes dormant until conditions improve 2. It has photosynthesis by membranes present in the cytoplasm 3. since it is also a heterotroph engulfs organic material by phagocytosis or by absorption for nutrition 4. uses mitochondria that acquite after loosing its plastidsarrow_forwardHow does the life cycle of a typical Red alga (Phylum Rhodophyta) differ from any other life histories covered in the course thus far? Don't forget to highlight these differences by comparing them to the basic types (i.e sporic, gametic, or zygotic meiosis)!arrow_forwardPlease answer asap and in short and content should not be palgarised pleasearrow_forward
