Question

The diagram above shows four steps in an attempt to investigate the release of gas during photosynthesis. Each setup was kept at 25 degrees C for 10 hours. What was the Independent Variable in this experiment?
a. temperature
b. water*
c. time
d. light

Answer 1

Answer:

light

Explanation:

The above experiment is an investigation on the factors that affect photosynthesis which include carbon dioxide concentration,light intensity and quality,chlorophyll, water and temperature.Light was the independent variable. When the lant is moved to an area where light intensity is low, the rate of photosynthesis decreases.

After the experiment, oxygen gas is produced being a by-product of photosynthesis. Plants that are not adapted to an aquatic environment are not suitable for this experiment. The amount of carbon dioxide dissolved in water is low.
