       The right answer to this question is option D. Carotenoids are categorized into two major divisions: carotenes and beta carotenes

       First, let's check option A, it says that the carotenoids include red, orange and yellow pigments, that's true, we can check that on lab for example, a vegetable that can be mentioned here are carrots, it has lots of this and it's very healthy too, and remember, there isn't a single animal that can produce carotenoids, so they need to grab it from nature.

       The second option, B. says that sometimes carotenoids are sometimes called as acessory pigments, that's true too, some studies consider them acessory pigments, so, they're not alone there, there are different kinds of pigments that can be on that plant, and they're also very important for the animals. Option C refers to beta carotene as the most abundant carotene in plants, that's true too, we can also find other kinds of carotenoids on plants, but this one as it's seen in lab, is the most common one. The last one, D, isn't true, the two major divisions are: Xanthophylls and Carotenoids, beta carotenoids are a type of carotenoids, not a different group.

What evidence do the positions of the peaks and dips in its spectrum provide about an object? A. expansion B. elemental composit
Andreas93 [3]

Given what we know about the use of spectrums, we can confirm that the positions of peaks and dips provide information as to the elemental composition of the object in question.

The question asks about the dips and peaks of a spectrum, which allows us to assume we are dealing with Infrared spectroscopy and IR spectrums. This is defined as the measurement of how certain matter interacts with infrared radiation.

These graphs are used to measure how this matter absorbs, reflects, or even emits said radiation. Therefore, the use of spectrums allows us to infer as to the chemicals present or functional groups of an object, and therefore its elemental composition.

When looking at the spectrum graph, we will see that at times the curve dips down, which indicates that <u><em>less light </em></u>is transmitted. That means light is being absorbed. Due to the fact that bonds absorb different frequencies of light, <u>the </u><u>peaks </u><u>tell you what kinds of </u><u>bonds </u><u>are present from which we can identify the </u><u>elemental composition</u><u>.</u>

Some animals in grasslands can obtain water they need from plants.
Sati [7]

The statement given in this question is TRUE; Some animals in grassland can obtain the water they need from plants.

Grassland is a biome that is characterized by wide range of temperature and uniform distribution of rainfall all through the year. The major plants found in the biome are grasses and herbs. The soil in the biome is not fertile enough for trees to survive there. Different animals can be found in the biome and some of the animals has drought resistance capacity. Some of these animals obtain their water requirement from the grasses, which they consume.

In some species, young individuals float freely as plankton while mature members are fixed on the seafloor. this is an effective
FrozenT [24]
This is an effective strategy because different phases do not compete for food.
For example for the case of Jelly fish, After a brief period floating about in surface waters like planktons, the  larvae then settles to the sea floor, attaching themselves to one end. They then develop to polyps and begin to feed and grow. In spring the polyps bud iff immature jellyfish known as ephyra larvae which then grow to mature jellyfish.
