Limiting Factors

Light intensity increases as the rate of photosynthesis increases, making it a limiting factor

When the concentration of carbon dioxide increases, so does the rate of photosynthesis, making it a limiting factor

As temperature increases, so does the rate of photosynthesis, making it a limiting factor

- If we increase the temperature too much then the enzymes in the leaf will start to denature and rate of photosynthesis will fall

Farmers add light, carbon dioxide and heat to their greenhouses

Some farm owners use oil burners and they release heat and carbon dioxide at the same time
