Do the results from Experiment 1 support the claim that photovoltaic cells capturing different frequencies function at varying efficiencies with changes in temperature? 

F. Yes, because as temperature increases, so does efficiency. 

G. Yes, because as temperature increases, efficiency decreases. 

H. No, because there is no uniform change in efficiency as related to temperature. 

J. No, because all photovoltaic cells function at the same efficiency regardless of frequency

What is G. Yes, because as temperature increases, efficiency decreases.
