Trap the gas produced and bubble through lime solution (aqueous calcium hydroxide), if a cloudy precipitate is produced from the initially clear solution this proves that carbon dioxide was evolved.Ca(OH)2 (aq) + CO2 (g) → CaCO3 (s) + H2O (l)

How are the products of respiration lost from the body?

The products of respiration are Carbon dioxide, Energy and Water. The energy is used by all your body cells to carry out life processes.

Cobalt Chloride paper will prove water is present, as will the condensation if you breathe on a mirror!

Effect on plant growth by increasing carbon dioxide?

The effect of carbon dioxide to plant growth, when adding additional carbon dioxide is negative. My scientific discoveries prove that it may be to hard on the plant to process more carbon dioxide than its actually used to. Agree?
