Summary Introduction

To review:

The conclusion based on the observation of two graphs depicting the photosynthetic activity.

Introduction:

Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is the microalgal species that are presently employed for the production of biofuels such as biodiesel, bioethanol, and biohydrogen. These organisms in the presence of full sunlight yield comparatively less amount of chemical energy, which, in turn, reduces the efficiency of photosynthesis. To overcome the reduced photosynthetic efficiency of C. reinhardtii, researchers engineered the organism by decreasing the size of antenna complexes used in the two photosystems. Comparisons of the photosynthetic activity and growth rate between this engineered strain and a control under high-light conditions are shown below.

please make a clear concise one question hypothesis
You performed an experiment on photosynthesis on Elodea, using bromothymol blue as an indicator forpH. Your two light conditions were red light and blue light. You found that in blue light, your solutionturned a nice cobalt blue, and in red light it turned green.a. What can you conclude about the efficiency of photosynthesis in Elodea regarding those twowavelengths?b. What would your conclusion be if your negative control (no Elodea in white light) turned greenalso?
In an experiment conduct to know the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis in spinach leaves, with the use of 5 ml of a 0.2% sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) and a solution of dilute drop of liquid soap. in relation this experiment,  state an hypothesis that predicts the relationship between light intensity and the rate of photosynthesis. Identify independent and dependent variables. What is your control group, and why is this an appropriate control?
