Answer: The night

Explanation:

Remember that a plant does two things, it either produces energy by photosynthesis, in which case it takes up the carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, or consumes energy to grow/carry out the functions of life.

In the second case, the plant takes the glucose, or sugar, that it made during photosynthesis and breaks it into pieces, releasing energy. This step is accompanied by the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This happens all the time, but since the plant does not produce sugar and release oxygen during the night, the night is when it produces more CO2 than O2.

Protein synthesis in rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and packaging in smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER)

Explanation:

Intracellular Protein Transport:

After transcription in the nucleus, the mRNA is translocated from the nucleus to the ribosomes attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). The RER is the site of the biosynthesis of proteins.
The process of translation of mRNA sequence into amino acid sequence takes place in the RER.
The newly synthesized protein is then packaged into vesicles in the SER and transported to the Golgi complex.
The Golgi complex is the cell's packaging department. It packages proteins into transport vesicles for intra and extracellular protein transport.
