There are more than 5 factors, but here are perhaps the most important ones:
1) Light: Light energy is a crucial component in photosynthesis, as it is the primary energy source of the process.
2) Carbon Dioxide: Another key ingredient in photosynthesis.
3) Temperature: There is an optimum temperature for photosynthesis that varies from organism to organism. Too cold or two hot, and rate of photosynthesis will be lower.
4) Water - Like almost all life process, water is a key component in photosynthesis.
5) Oxygen. A common misconception is that plants only "breathe in" carbon dioxide and expel oxygen. Plant cells actually require oxygen as well in order to function, and thus oxygen is a necessary part of photosynthesis.

The molecular basis of the Gram stain is the amount of _______ in the bacterial cell wall. bacteriophage spirochete peptidoglyca

Anna11 [10]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

peptidoglycan

The molecular basis of the Gram stain is the amount of<u> peptidoglycan</u> in the bacterial cell wall.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Gram stain is differential stain that is very useful for identifying and classifying bacteria as either gram negative or gram positive.
Gram negative are those that decolorize easily, such as E. coli, while Gram positive are those that retain the primary stain and do not decolorize easily.
The result depends on the bacteria cell wall structure, the cell wall of a Gram-negative bacterium is composed of 20 percent or less of peptidoglycan.
