Algae grown in water containing some 18O (in H2 18O) evolve oxygen gas with the same isotopic composition as the oxygen in the water. When algae growing in water containing only 16O were furnished carbon dioxide containing 18O, no 18O was found to be evolved from the oxygen gas produced. What conclusions about photosynthesis can be drawn from these experiments?
