Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, are a group of photosynthetic bacteria that can fix atmospheric nitrogen and thrive in diverse habitats. They have the ability to produce large amounts of biomass and accumulate lipids suitable for biofuel production. Shown below are two boxes, X and Y. Containers with water that contains cyanobacteria are placed in both boxes. (a) Ideally, how should the samples of water with cyanobacteria be kept in order to get products that can be used for maximum production of biofuels? (b) In which of the boxes, is cyanobacteria likely to have better growth and why?
