How would the concentration of CO₂ in water affect photosynthesis?

• The higher the CO₂, the greater the rate
• The higher the CO₂, the lower the rate
• CO₂ concentration doesn't affect photosynthesis
• a greater rate of photosynthesis causes higher CO₂ concentrations

If we enclosed a plant in an air-proof bottle, what would happen to the rate of photosynthesis 

• Gradually slow down to zero because CO₂ is used up
• Shows a constant rate as long as the light remains on
• Gradually speeds up because O₂ builds up
• Gradually slows down because glucose builds up
