The algal class rhodophyceae contains a red pigment (r-phycocrythrin) and a blue pigment (r-phycocynin) in the chromatphores. These pigments can utilize those wavelengths of light (blue-green region of spectrum, i.e., 480-520 nm) that are not absorbed by chlorophyll. This enables red algae to grow at greater depths than other plants (upto 300 ft. below water). In addition to these, chi.-a, chl.- d, carotenes and xanthophylls are present. In phaeophyceae chromatophores are yellowish brown in colour possessing xanthophylls in abundance. Bacillariophyceae are called 'diatoms' due to presence of an accessory brown pigment called 'diatomin', other pigments are chi.-a, chi.-c (but not chi.-6), carotenes and xanthophylls. In chlorophyceae colouring pigments are just like higher plants, i.e., Chi.-a, Chi.-6, xanthophylls and carotenes.
So, the correct option is (B): rhodophyta.

A full wave rectifier circuit with diodes (\(D_1\)) and (\(D_2\)) is shown in the figure. If input supply voltage \(V_{in} = 220 \sin(100 \pi t)\) volt, then at \(t = 15\) msec:
Consider a water tank shown in the figure. It has one wall at \(x = L\) and can be taken to be very wide in the z direction. When filled with a liquid of surface tension \(S\) and density \( \rho \), the liquid surface makes angle \( \theta_0 \) (\( \theta_0 < < 1 \)) with the x-axis at \(x = L\). If \(y(x)\) is the height of the surface then the equation for \(y(x)\) is: (take \(g\) as the acceleration due to gravity)
The Plant Kingdom comprises all the plants that have some shared characteristics. These are bacteria (prokaryotes), photosynthetic plants, fungi, and several non-photosynthetic plants.
