Phosphate and Flourish in the C02 generator?
Is that to help the yeast photosynethesize? or does it attach to the
C02 molecules and transport itself into the aquarium?


Yeast does not photosynthesize. It would be very hard for anything to do
that in a sealed opaque container. Phosphorous is used in the commercial
production of yeast, but I don't know what else yeast could gain from the
Flourish fertilizer complex besides possibly nitrogen. All it really needs
to grow is carbohydrates and water.
