Increasing
1 answer:
Answer:
Increasing carbon dioxide concentration increases the rate of photosynthesis as carbon dioxide (CO2) is <em><u>a limiting factor.</u></em>
<em><u /></em>
Explanation:
Some limiting factors like carbon dioxide, temperature etc. influence the photosynthetic rate, which may end up <em>reducing the potential amount of carbohydrate produced by photosynthesis</em>. Carbon dioxide is important for this form of biosynthesis: it provides the inorganic carbon that is integrated into carbohydrate molecules.
The photosynthetic rate can be slowed by a decline in the concentration of available carbon dioxide.
<em> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 </em>
Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light Glucose + Oxygen
