The correct answer is C. An aquarium with water plants and a snail
Explanation:
In an aquarium with water plants and snail the flow of oxygen and carbon dioxide will be continuous because plants are able to do photosynthesis which release the oxygen as the byproduct and this oxygen will be used by snail and snail during respiration release CO2 which will be used by plants in the process of photosynthesis to make food for itself.
Therefore there will be symbiotic relationship between plants and snail because snail provides carbon dioxide to plant and plant provide oxygen to the snail and support their survival. Therefore in this container organism would be able to continuously cycle O2 and CO2. So the right answer is C.
The correct answer is C. In the aquarium, the water plants would provide the O2 molecules necessary for the snail's metabolism and the snail would release the CO2 molecules that are a byproduct of his metabolism into the container. The CO2 would later be used by plants to make sugar in the process of photosynthesis, releasing more O2 and the cycle of two gases would be completed.
The Calvin cycle uses CO2 and the energy temporarily stored in ATP and NADPH to make the sugar glucose. Photosynthesis is a two stage process. As is depicted here, the energy from sunlight is needed to start photosynthesis. The initial stage is called the light reactions as they occur only in the presence of light
