A tree is growing in size. What must be true about the rate of photosynthesis and the rate of cellular respiration? The rate of photosynthesis is lower than the rate of cellular respiration. The rate of photosynthesis is equal to the rate of cellular respiration. The rate of photosynthesis is higher than the rate of cellular respiration. The plant is not conducting cellular respiration.

What best explains the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration? The higher the rate of formation of products in respiration, the lower the rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis depends on the carbon dioxide released during cellular respiration. Cellular respiration depends on the water released during photosynthesis. They have the same set of product molecules.

If a plant is to grow larger, which must occur in a 24-hour period: photosynthesis exceeds respiration or respiration exceeds photosynthesis? Explain your choice.

During photosynthesis, green plants preferentially use $^{12} \mathrm{CO}_{2}$ over $^{13} \mathrm{CO}_{2}$ in making sugars, and food scientists can frequently determine the source of sugars used in foods on the basis of the ratio of $^{12} \mathrm{C}$ to $^{13} \mathrm{C}$ in a sample. a. Calculate the relative rates of diffusion of $^{13} \mathrm{CO}_{2}$ and $^{12} \mathrm{CO}_{2}$ b. Specify which gas diffuses faster.
