Question

Mohan prepared lime water and the next month used for the excellent showing seo2 is evolved in the process of respiration

Answer 1

Respiration is a biochemical process during which simple carbohydrates, like glucose, are broken down to release energy. Every cell of a living organism- man, animal and plant, respires.

Respiration in plants can be studied in moist germinating seeds that release carbon dioxide (CO2) during respiration. The seeds are kept in an air tight conical flask. A small test tube containing potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution is placed in the flask. Potassium hydroxide absorbs carbon dioxide released by the seeds and a partial vacuum is created in the flask as a result. This causes the water level in the delivery tube to rise.
