Question

If the leaves of a geranium plant receive an adequate supply of raw materials, which graph shows how the rate of photosynthesis is related to increasing light intensity received by the plant?

Answer 1

I think the correct graph would have light intensity on the x-axis (because light intensity is the independent variable) and a measure of photosynthetic rate (either O2 evolution or CO2 consumption) on the y-axis (because the rate of photosynthesis is the dependent variable)... hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The photosynthetic rate is proportional to the light intensity, when the plants receive less light they make less photosynthesis. In general, the higher the light intensity, the greater photosynthetic activity
