1. Look at the molecular formula for plant tissue. Where does the carbon come from? 2. Where does the hydrogen in C6H12O6 come from? 3. When radioactive isotopes of oxygen atoms are put into CO2 molecules and the plant is allowed to photosynthesize, only new plant tissue (C6H12O6) is radioactive and the oxygen gas given off is not radioactive. Draw a dotted line in the photosynthesis equation to show where the oxygen atoms in CO2 go. 4. Draw a dotted line in the equation to show where the oxygen atoms in H20 go.
