A plant biochemist received a specimen from a fellow scientist who noticed that the plant's stomata are closed during the day. The biochemist observed that radioactive carbon supplied in the form of carbon dioxide fed to the plant at night was first found in organic acids that accumulated in the vacuole. During the day; the label moved to sugars being manufactured in the chloroplast. What was the conclusion of the biochemist?
