Answer:
a. Paper chromatography would separate the pigments into several bands that appear green or yellow/orange.
Explanation:
The primary or main pigment in plants is the chlorophyll. The chlorophyll gives plants their characteristics green colour and helps in the absorption of light during photosynthesis.
Other pigments in plants include carotenoid with its characteristic yellow, red or orange colour; anthocyanin with its re/blue colour and betalains with its red/yellow colour.
<em>Hence, if pigments from a particular species of plant are extracted and subjected to paper chromatography, one would expect the pigments to be separated into several colour bands ranging from green to yellow/orange.</em>
The correct option is a.
The whale's flipper and tail flukes and fish fins are analogous structure as they have different structural formation but they perform the same function.
Flipper and tails are locomotory organs in the whale and helps the whale in propelling similarly fins in the fish assist the fish in swimming. Both the strcutures have evolved differently and are made of different materials.
