- If you were shown an algal species that produced large amounts of carotenoids, what would you infer about the ecology of this organism? Explain your reasoning.
- What regions of the spectrum of light do chlorophylls absorb? Which part do they reflect?
Summative Questions
- What is a protist?
- Are protists a monophyletic group? Why or why not?
- What are the current supergroups within Domain Eukarya, and why are they grouped the way they are?
