The weight of the container will stay the same during cellular respiration. This is because cellular respiration is a biochemical process that converts glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, water, and energy, but it does not change the total amount of matter (mass) within the sealed container. Since weight is a measure of mass influenced by gravity, and the total mass remains constant, the weight will also remain constant despite the reaction occurring inside the container.
Energy and Matter Conservation Quick Check Suppose cellular respiration occurs inside an insulated, sealed container on the moon. The moon's gravity is roughly one-sixth that of Earth's. How does the container's weight change during the reaction? (1 point) Ofluctuates Ostays the same Odecreases O increases
