Think about the ingredients needed for plants to 'cook' their food.
Question 2.
What are the products of respiration?
Show hintHide hint
Consider what a plant 'breathes out' after using glucose.
3Question 3.
What substances are produced during photosynthesis?
- Glucose and O₂
- ATP and CO₂

Show hintHide hint
Look for the 'food' created by plants.
4Question 4.
True or False: Respiration occurs only in the presence of light.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider if plants need light to breathe.
Question 5.
Discuss the impact of a decrease in atmospheric CO₂ on plant respiration and photosynthesis. How would this affect ecosystems?
Show hintHide hint
Think about the role CO₂ plays in plant growth and the energy transfer between levels of an ecosystem.
Question 6.
Propose a scenario where a plant undergoes photorespiration. How does this process differ from typical respiration and what implications does it have?
Show hintHide hint
Consider the conditions where a plant might struggle to take in CO₂.
