A group of students wants to study the rate of photosynthesis under various conditions. They use a blender to mechanically disrupt the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts from an algae sample The liquid
mixture is added to test-tubes, and 5 drops of DPIP solution is added to each tube. One set of tubes is placed in direct sunlight, another is placed in indirect sunlight, and a third is placed under an infrared heat
lamp. One test-tube contains only water and 5 drops of DPIP (control). The students check the color of the liquid in the tubes every 15 minutes for a period of 1 hour. They record their observations in a table

А
The rate of photosynthesis under indirect sunlight is slower than in infrared light
B
The rate of photosynthesis is greatest for direct sunlight and least for the infrared light.
С
The rate of photosynthesis cannot be determined because the infrared lamp degraded the DPIP
D
The rate of photosynthesis cannot be determined because exposure to direct sunlight degraded the DPIP
