it was based on common sense ig rather than knowledge. why did u say co2 needs to be absorbed by soda lime??

it said glucose and oxygen both for respiration and energy for growth, im not sure abt the oxygen

i put co2 will replace the oxygen that was taken in for respiration so co2 need to be absorbed so the bubble can move and measure the volume

ru sure thats correct? i wasn’t sure so said to prevent co2 being used for photosynthesis and as photosyn also uses water it would affect our results

idk i was thinking more like the pressure will be lowered cuz co2 gone meaning bubble will move left, ig the photosynthesis also makes sense

yess i wrote this
and i also wrote that co2 shldnt be absorbed by the germinating seeds because they dont carry out photosynthesis
therefore it would not affect the results of the bubble moving

idk if it’s right but i put so the seeds don’t photosynthesis and no other gas is released??
