During winter time, the decreased amount number of sunlight would affect the process of photosynthesis. Sunlight is the most essential ingredient in photosynthesis and without it, photosynthesis would likely not be possible. Thus, the effect of this would be that the process of photosynthesis would be slowed down. Basically;
<em>The rate of photosynthesis would decrease and less glucose would be produced.</em>
Karen is NOT correct. This is because the sun's energy is a renewable resource. This means that its use is sustainable hence it is a substance of economic value that can be replaced or replenished in the same or less amount of time as it takes to draw the supply down. Though the sun is a finite resource, it cannot be depleted within human timescale.
