Cellular respiration can be thought of as the opposite of photosynthesis. In cellular respiration oxygen is turned into carbon dioxide while in photosynthesis carbon dioxide is tuned to oxygen.
I hope this helps. let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
The correct answer is a. This is because the pH of a solution is defined as -log10(concentration of H+ ions). An inverse logarithmic scale such as this means that a solution with a lower concentration of H+ ions will have a higher pH than one with a higher concentration. Therefore we know that the pH of the second sample will be higher than the first.
Since the logarithmic scale has the base 10, a change by 1 on the scale is a consequence of multiplication/division of the H+ concentration by a factor of 10. As the scale is inverse, this means that a decrease of concentration by factor 1000 is equivalent to increasing the pH by (1000/10) = 3.
The mass will stay the same because of the conservation of mass
