Brunhilda will observe that gas bubbles will be present only during the day. This is because during the day, plants perform photosynthesis, which produces oxygen as a byproduct. At night, in the absence of light, photosynthesis does not occur, and plants primarily undergo respiration, which consumes oxygen without producing it, so no gas bubbles would be observed at night.
Brunhilda is repeating some of Ingenhousz’s experiments. She observes plants under water during the day and at night.
