Answer 1

In the scenario where a house plant is sealed in a transparent glass container, the most likely response that would lead to the plant’s death is **a lack of carbon dioxide**.

While a plant can utilize light and produce oxygen during photosynthesis, it also requires carbon dioxide to carry out this process. If the container is sealed, over time, the carbon dioxide available inside would be used up, and the plant would not be able to perform photosynthesis effectively, leading to its death.
