The graph shows the concentration of oxygen in the air spaces of a green leaf of a plant during a 12-hour period.

Which statement about carbon dioxide in the air spaces during time X is correct?

• Carbon dioxide is being produced because the rate of photosynthesis is greater than the rate of respiration.

• Carbon dioxide is being produced because the rate of respiration is greater than the rate of photosynthesis.

• Carbon dioxide is being used because the rate of photosynthesis is greater than the rate of respiration.

• Carbon dioxide is being used because the rate of respiration is greater than the rate of photosynthesis.

• the size of aquatic plant and the amount of gas in the measuring cylinder

• the size of aquatic plant and the duration of exposure to light

• the size of the beaker and the funnel
