Will has an aquarium with water, plants, and fish that eat the plants. It is sealed so no material can get in or out, and has glass sides that allow sunlight to come in. The aquarium can also be covered to prevent light from entering.

The amount of carbon in the aquarium's water started out high. Now, the amount of carbon in the water is decreasing. Is the aquarium now in sunlight or is it covered? What is happening to the number of energy storage molecules in the plants and fish as a result?

What is in the sunlight and more?

Lily has an aquarium with water, plants, and fish that eat the plants. The aquarium is sealed so no material can get in or out, and has glass sides that allow light to come in. The aquarium can also be covered to prevent light from entering.

The number of energy storage molecules in the plants and fish started out low, but that number has been increasing over time. Has the aquarium been in sunlight or has it been covered during this time? What has happened to the carbon in the water?

What is The aquarium has been in sunlight, and there is less carbon in the water.?

Louisiana was far from France, many settlements were established where farming was poor, much of the control was given over to businessmen who had to make a profit, Creole culture, which was not the same as French culture, began to grow.

Why did leadership of French colonial Louisiana change so many times?

A group of giraffes feeds on leaves and grasses during the daytime. Right now, it's the middle of the night. The sun is not shining and the giraffes are not eating. Is carbon moving into the living things, moving out of the living things, or both?

What is Carbon is only moving out of the living things; it is not moving into them?

A scientist set up an experimental ecosystem in a sealed room with no windows. The experimental ecosystem has plants, and animals that eat those plants. The scientist can control whether the room is light or dark with a light switch outside the room. The amount of carbon in the air of the ecosystem started out low. Then the amount of carbon in the air started to increase. Is the increase because the scientist switched the light on or because she switched the light off? What happened to the number of energy storage molecules in the living things? The scientist . . .

What is switched the light off, decreased?

Reza has a glass ball filled with water that contains tiny plants and shrimp that eat those plants.

No material can get in or out, but light can get through the glass when it is placed in sunlight.
The number of energy storage molecules in the plants and shrimp started out high, but then the glass ball was moved, and the number of energy storage molecules decreased. Was the glass ball moved into the light or into the dark? What happened to the amount of carbon in the water?

What is dark, more?

If the husband be a slave, and the wife a free woman, it is our will that their children . . . shall share the condition of their mother, and be as free as she, notwithstanding the servitude of their father; and if the father be free and the mother a slave, the children shall all be slaves. . . . XXII. We declare that slaves can have no right to any kind of property, and that all that they acquire, either by their own industry or by the liberality of others, or by any other means or title whatever, shall be the full property of their masters. . . .

A scientist is studying an aquarium ecosystem that contains water, plants, and fish that eat those plants. The aquarium has glass walls so light can get in, but it is sealed so no material can move into or out of the tank. When the scientist turned the aquarium's light on, carbon in the water started decreasing. How is carbon moving and what is happening to the amount of carbon in the living things inside the aquarium?

What is carbon in the air is decreasing, the amount of carbon in living things is increasing?

This space station has plants growing inside it, and astronauts who eat the fruits and vegetables from those plants. Because it is in space, the station is sealed so no material can get in or out. The space station is in Earth’s shadow, so no light is getting into it. The sensors in the space station show that carbon dioxide in the air is increasing. What is happening to the energy storage molecules in the plants and humans in the space station?

What is carbon dioxide increased, energy storage molecules is decreasing?
