Which would have the GREATEST effect on the rate of photosynthesis in a plant?
|
|
oxygen level
|
|
|
light intensity
|
|
|
sugar concentration
|
|
|
starch concentration
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -As you rise from low light intensity to higher light intensity, the rate of photosynthesis will increase because there is more light available to drive the reactions of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Light intensity-Increasing light intensity increases the rate of photosynthesis because more energy is provided. However, if the light intensity is increased above a certain threshold, the rate of photosynthesis will not increase because another factor (such as temperature) is limiting the rate of the reaction.
