Answer: a/b PLANTDARK In the carbon dioxide gas moves into plant leaf cells and oxygen gas moves out. What do you think happens in the DARK? a. Carbon dioxide moves into plant leaf cells and oxygen moves out. b. Oxygen into plant leaf cells and carbon dioxide moves out. c. The leaf cells go dormant, so no gases move into or out of plant leaf cells. d. amounts of carbon dioxide and oxygen move both in and out of plant leaf cells. Explain your choice. What causes carbon dioxide or oxygen to move in or out of plant leaf cells in the dark? Answer: b POTATO A potato is left outside and gradually decays. One of the main materials in the potato is starch, which is made of many sugar molecules (C6H12O6) bonded together. What happens to the atoms in starch molecules as the potato decays? Choose True or False for each option. Explain the pattern in your answers. What happens to the in the starch when the potato decays?
