Question

Describe and explain how temperature and light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis?

Answer 1

Answer:

The rate of photosynthesis varies with light intensity and temperature.

Explanation:

The rate of photosynthesis varies with light intensity.it decreases as light intensity decreases and increase s as light intensity increases. However at much higher light intensity rate of photosynthesis becomes constant.

The rate of photosynthesis decreases with decrease in temperature.It increases as temperature is increased over a limit. But if light intensity is low increase of temperature has little influence on rate of photosynthesis.
