Answer: Move away from the Earth.

Explanation:

The tidal bulge produced on Earth by the moon causes loss of energy of Earth due to friction. We know that Earth and Moon are pulling each other by gravitational force. This causes tidal bulges being created on two opposite ends of the Earth. This is causing the moon getting pushed farther away from Earth increasing its orbit.

Which of the following statements about carotenoids is NOT true? Carotenoids include red, orange, and yellow pigments. Carotenoi
kvv77 [185]

       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.
