ze these pigments from genes transferred from fungi. While pea aphids do not have chloroplasts or fix carbon, researchers have found that pea aphids with more pigments have higher levels of ATP than those with fewer pigments. Pea aphids also have been shown to increase production of ATP when exposed to sunlight. Based on this information, is the pea aphid an autotroph? A. Yes, because the pea aphid does not need to use energy from food. B. No, because the pea aphid depends on genes from fungii to utilize energy from sunlight. C. Yes, because the pea aphid can store energy from the sun in ATP molecules. D. No, because the pea aphid is unable to use the energy from sunlight. I NEED HELP

Answer: An autotroph is an organism that can generate it's own nutrients. In the example, you see a relationship which allows the pea aphid to gain more energy, but not produce it.

And heterotroph is an organisms that can't generate it's own nutrients, and therefore needs to feed on something, which is the case of pea aphids.

Most plant leaves contain yellow and orange carotenoids as well as green chlorophylls. Why then are most leaves greenish
sattari [20]

Answer:

Because the leaves contain a greater concentration of green chlorophylls than yellow and orange carotenoids.

Explanation:

Chlorophyll and carotenoids are both pigments found in the cells of organisms like plants. They have differing color range depending on which wavelength of light they absorb and which they reflect. For example, chlorophyll pigment are green because they reflect green light and absorb others.

According to this question, the leaves of most plants contain yellow and orange carotenoids in addition to green chlorophylls but leaves are mostly green. This is because there is an abundant of chlorophyll pigment than any other pigment in the leaves of most plants. Hence, GREEN COLOR conferred by chlorophyll dominates and masks the color appearance of the other accessory pigments like yellow and orange carotenoids.
