Rate of Photosynthesis

Cards (3)

  • Factors that affect Photosynthesis:
    • temperature
    • light intensity
    • carbon dioxide concentration,
    • amount of chlorophyll
  • These factors interact and any one of them may be the factor that limits photosynthesis.
  • Limiting factors are important in the economics of enhancing the conditions in greenhouses to gain the maximum rate of photosynthesis while still maintaining profit.
