It is possible to measure the rate of the "photo" reactions in plants by measuring the levels of O₂ produced by chloroplasts. If bicarbonate solution, a source of CO₂, is provided to the plants, the rate of the "photo" reactions increases.
a) Explain why measuring O₂ levels provides an indication of the rate of the "photo" reactions.
b) Being as specific as possible, describe how the plants use the CO₂ provided by the bicarbonate solution.
c) Propose an explanation of how increasing the CO₂ source for the plants affects the rate of the "photo" reactions.
