PHOTOSYNTHESIS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Things that affect the rate of photosynthesis are the amount of water, sunlight, and?
A
temperature
B
type of soil
C
type of plant
D
type of fertilizer
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Light intensity: Though the plant gets water and carbon dioxide, it can’t photosynthesize without light. Temperature: The temperature should be moderate to increase the rate of photosynthesis. More items

Detailed explanation-2: -The main factors affecting rate of photosynthesis are light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration and temperature.

Detailed explanation-3: -Water indirectly influences the rate of photosynthesis. Stomatal closure impacts the rate of photosynthesis when the water supply is constrained. When there is a water shortage, the stomata close, reducing the amount of carbon dioxide available.

Detailed explanation-4: -Both the temperature ramp and point-temperature incubations resulted in a significant decrease in photosynthetic activity with increasing water temperature.

Detailed explanation-5: -Temperature has an impact on the rate of photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis increases as the temperature rises. During photosynthesis, a temperature of more than 40 °C slows down the process.
