I got this question wrong on a test and I am attempting to correct it, but can't figure it out.

Compared with the lines for chlorophyll a in the figure, where would you expect to find the lines to differ for chlorophyll b?
A) The absorption spectrum line would be lowest for chlorophyll b somewhat to the right of that for chlorophyll a (500 to 600).
B) The rate of photosynthesis line for chlorophyll b would be lowest from 600 to 700 nm.
C) The lines for the two types of chlorophyll would be almost completely opposite.
D) The lines for the two types of chlorophyll would be almost completely identical.
E) The peaks of the line for absorbance of b would be shifted to the left, and for rate of photosynthesis would be shifted to the right.
