Researchers were investigating molecular activity under a variety of environmental conditions. After a series of experiments, the data were used to construct a number of figures, one of which is provided below. However, because of a data stream transmission error, some of the components of the figures were lost, resulting in a scrambling of the figure descriptions and axis scales.

Your job is to properly reconstruct and interpret the figures. Please note that one or more options might fulfill the defined criteria as provided.

5 Questions

1. Given that the scale for 'B' includes only visible light from lower to higher energy from left to right, and the scale for 'A' measures absorbance, which of the following would be true?
2. For the same experiment as in Question 1 dealing with the isolation and characterization of selected enzymes isolated from a newly defined species of archaeobacteria, which would be the most appropriate legend and scale for 'B'?
3. One of the experiments dealt with the absorption spectra of isolated photoreactive pigments. For this set of data, which of the following would be the most appropriate legend and scale for 'A'?
4. For the same experiment as in Question 3 dealing with the isolation and characterization of selected photoreactive pigments isolated from a newly defined species of archaeobacteria, which would be the most appropriate legend and scale for 'B'?
5. One of the experiments dealt with the isolation and characterization of selected enzymes isolated from a newly defined species of archaeobacteria. For this set of data, which of the following would be the most appropriate legend and scale for 'A'?
