It has stopped respiring while the light is bright
It gives out no oxygen at all until the light fades
Overall it takes in more carbon dioxide than it gives outالإجابة الصحيحة
Overall it gives out more oxygen than it takes inالإجابة الصحيحة

الشرح

In bright light photosynthesis runs much faster than respiration, so the two do not cancel out and the plant ends the hour as a net consumer of carbon dioxide and a net supplier of oxygen. Both processes are running throughout, and describing the plant as having stopped respiring mistakes the balance between two processes for the absence of one.
