Thank you for your response.

hello im a lame 9th grader

Hello, i need help with my science project. me and my friend will take 2 sugar beets, one sugar beet will be exposed to more co2 than the other. then we will measure the amount of sugar (glucose) and then compare the two amounts. to do this one sugar beet will be inside a jar filled with co2 from a compressed can of co2. both sugar beets will be watered equally under the same amount of light and the same soil will be used. then after a few days we will extract the sugar out of the sugar beets and then we will compare the amount of sugar from both sugar beets. what we are trying to find out is if a sugar beet exposed to more co2 will produce more sugar than the sugar beet alone. according to the process of photosynthesis, a plant takes 6 co2 molecules, 6 h2o molecules, and sunlight to make glucose. using this information we came up with our hypothesis that if a sugar beet exposed to more available co2 the sugar beet will be able to produce more co2. the only thing that i need to know is how long is the process of photosynthesis so i can know how long i have to observe each plant to get sugar. *since this is an experiment im not looking to answers that's like "oh this wont work because..... (backup information)" because there wont be any point in my experiment and i will have to look for a new one . please give me your thoughts, i will be really thankful
