What was the purpose of using a buffer for the isolation and function assessment of chloroplasts?
A) To eliminate pH as a variable in the experiment.
B) To maintain a constant quantity of light (PFR = 170) in the chloroplast preparation.
C) The buffer maintained a constant temperature in the chloroplast preparation; this was necessary
because the lights used in the experiment produced heat.
D) To eliminate the amount of carbon dioxide in the chloroplast preparation as a variable.
E) To maintain a constant amount of oxygen in the chloroplast preparation.
