Using Fig. 4.1, give the wavelength at which phycoerythrin reaches maximum absorption.
Use the data in Fig. 4.1 to explain why phycoerythrin cannot be the only photosynthetic pigment in red algae.
Phycoerythrin is not the main pigment (reaction centre pigment) for photosynthesis in red algae. Suggest what role phycoerythrin plays in photosynthesis in red algae.
State the name of a method that can be used to separate and identify photosynthetic pigments.
Explain how the results from this method would be used to show that phycoerythrin is present in red algae and absent from a plant with green leaves.
