Question

H. How many different bands of color pigment do you see on your strip? Which colors traveled

the farthest up the strip?
I. The yellow and orange colors are other pigments found in plant cells. What do you think is the
function of these other pigments? (see Figure 6.3)

Answer 1

The orange-colored band, made of the pigment called carotenoids. is the most soluble in alcohol, so it traveled the farthest.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pigment that traveled the furthest was carotene xanthophyll because it was the most soluble in the solvent.
