What is the relationship between light intensity and rate of photosynthesis?
As light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases, until another factor becomes limiting.
What does a limiting factor mean?
A condition that prevents the rate of photosynthesis from increasing.
Inverse square law for light intensity
Light intensity ∝ 1 ÷ (distance)².
How temperature affects rate of photosynthesis
Increases rate up to an optimum, then enzymes denature.
How carbon dioxide concentration affects photosynthesis
Increased carbon dioxide concentration increases rate up to a point.
How to measure rate of photosynthesis in lab
Count oxygen bubbles produced from pondweed or measure volume of oxygen collected.
