I know that I am about to ask the stupidest question
known to man, but I have always told my students that only
stupid question is the one you are afraid to ask so here goes.
I taught high school Biology several years ago and one
of my former students was talking to me today and asked, "What
is the gas found inside a pumpkin and where does it come from?"
I would think that the wax cuticle on the outside of the pumpkin
would keep air exchange to a minimum so I have no idea.
Thanks!
