If in a green plant , the rates of respiration and photosynthesis are equal ,the plant will be take which gas
Answers
If rate of photosynthesis and respiration becomes same for a plantthe plant will become self sustaining because it will Intake same amount of carbon dioxide and give out the exact same amount of oxygen leading to self sustainability.
But the problem starts during the night. The cells have to prepare enough food for themselves and keep them for their use during the night because the process of photosynthesis doesn't occurs during the night while respiration does which leads to giving out of oxygen (though very less).
In a green plant if the rate of respiration and photosynthesis are equal, then the plant will be self-sustaining and will neither require oxygen nor carbon dioxide from the environment.
This is because after photosynthesis, oxygen is given out which will be utilized in respiration and after respiration carbon dioxide is given out which will be utilized in photosynthesis.
