A certain photosynthetic species was found to contain two

A certain photosynthetic species was found to contain two additional pigments beyond those that are found in most photosynthetic species Researchers studying this species claim that it is better adapted to survive under changes in environmental conditions than species with only one type of pigment Which of the following best supports this claim A B C D The pigment combination allows the organism to absorb heat as well as light increasing its overall available energy The additional pigments allow the species to outcompete other species for the same wavelengths of light commonly used in photosynthesis The additional pigments allow the species to capture energy from wavelengths of light that the other photosynthetic species cannot use The increased pigment concentration better facilitates energy production within the cells of the species
