Take three test tubes. Fill ¾th of each with water. Label them A, B and C. Keep a snail in test tube A, a water plant in test tube B and in C, keep both the snail and plant. Which test tube would have the highest concentration of CO2?
ScienceClass 7CBSEAnswered 27 Mar 2026
Answer
Solution:
Test tube A will have the highest concentration of CO2 because test tube A has a snail which expels out CO2 into the tube. Since a plant is present in both test tubes B and C, the plant will inhale CO2 to decrease CO2 concentration. Thus, there will be less concentration of CO2 in these tubes.
