Question

Where does plant’s mass comes from? Claim: Evidence: Reasoning:

Answer 1

Answer:

The carbon from CO2.

Explanation:

DON'T make the mistake of saying "from the nutrients in the ground" or "the dirt".

The equation of photosynthesis is

6CO2+6H2O -> C6H12O6+O2

That's all I will give you - you can write the claim evidence reasoning based on that. If you need more help comment! Good luck!

Answer 2

The increased mass comes from the products of photosynthesis. The molecules taken by the plant are CO2 and H2O. During photosynthesis, plants convert the sun's energy into chemical energy which is captured within the bonds of carbon molecules built from atmospheric carbon dioxide and water.
