18. Can photosynthesis occur during daylight and at night? Can aerobic respiration occur during daylight and at night? 19. What is an enzyme and what does it do for a reaction?
The experiment below shows two tomato plants being exposed to light in Step 1. In Step 2, Plant B is covered by a black box to prevent light from entering.
20. In this experiment, what is the control? 21. Use the graph below to explain how the plants grew over the course of 2 weeks.
