Reseаrchers investigаted pоpulаtiоns (individuals per liter) оf both phytoplankton and zooplankton in this lake to see how they reacted to different light conditions. Some aquatic invertebrates have compounds that protect against the effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The treatments were: PAR Treatment - allowed photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) while blocking UV-A and UV-B radiation PAR + UV-A Treatment - allowed PAR and UV-A while blocking UV-B PAR + UV-A + UV-B Treatment - allowed PAR, UV-A and UV-B (no radiation blocked) Based upon the information in Figure A below, which group of zooplankton species produces compounds that provide better protection against UV-B radiation?
