The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the characteristic pigments of chlorophyll 'c', 'd', and 'e', we will identify the organisms associated with each type of chlorophyll. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Chlorophyll 'C':** - Chlorophyll 'C' is primarily found in **Brown Algae**. Brown algae are known to contain chlorophyll 'A' and chlorophyll 'C', along with other pigments like xanthophyll and phycoxanthin. 2. **Identify Chlorophyll 'D':** - Chlorophyll 'D' is characteristic of **Red Algae**. Red algae contain chlorophyll 'A' and chlorophyll 'D', along with phycobilins, which are important for photosynthesis. 3. **Identify Chlorophyll 'E':** - Chlorophyll 'E' is found in **Yellow Green Algae**. Yellow green algae contain chlorophyll 'A' and chlorophyll 'E', along with other pigments such as xanthophyll and beta carotene. ### Final Answer: - Chlorophyll 'C' is found in **Brown Algae**. - Chlorophyll 'D' is found in **Red Algae**. - Chlorophyll 'E' is found in **Yellow Green Algae**. ### Summary: - **Chlorophyll 'C'** - Brown Algae - **Chlorophyll 'D'** - Red Algae - **Chlorophyll 'E'** - Yellow Green Algae
