The correct answer is A. Serotonin and norepinephrine

Explanation:

The obsessive-compulsive disorder is a mental disorder characterized by the individual experiencing constant compulsive behaviors such as repeating an action multiple times, as well as behaviors that represent obsessions such as obsessive thoughts about some situation.

In terms of cause, it has been found this mental disorder is related to genetics, but also to a deficiency in the neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine considering serotonin has a connection with mood and feeling happy; while norepinephrine is related to alertness, attention, and anxiety which are all aspects that represent an issue in Obsessive-compulsive disorder. Indeed, one of the most effective treatments for this mental disorder is a combination of serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors that regulate and increase the amount of serotonin and norepinephrine in the individual.

In the lab, you isolate a chlorella mutant that is unable to switch xanthophyll pigments into the inactive, non-heat-dissipating
REY [17]

Answer:

No, because xanthophyll dissipates absorbed light as heat, and in low light environments, such dissipation would decrease photosynthesis and therefore growth.

Explanation:

Xanthophyll is one of the accessory pigments present in organisms. Being an accessory pigment, the function of xanthophyll is to dissipate the absorbed visible light. Since it dissipates the visible light, the light cannot be used by Chlorella to drive the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.

When a mutant Chlorella is grown in the shady region, the dissipation of light by xanthophyll would further reduce the rate of photosynthesis. This mutation is not an adaptive feature in shady regions where the rate of photosynthesis is already lower due to limited availability of light and therefore, would not be favored by natural selection and would not spread to the future generations.
