- photosynthesis
- the rate of photosynthesis is affected by temperature, light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration and the amount of chlorophyll
- temperature
- as the temp of the environment the plant is in increases the rate of photosynthesis increases (up to a certain extent)
- as more energy for a chemical reaction
- as the temp of the environment the plant is in increases the rate of photosynthesis increases (up to a certain extent)
- light intensity
- light intensity increases as the distance between the light source and the plant increases
- as light intensity increases so does the rate of photosynthesis (up to a certain extent)
- obeys the inverse square law
- means that if you double the distance between the plant and light source you quarter the light intensity
- co2 concentration
- co2 is needed for plants to glucose
- the rate of photosynthesi-s will increase when a plant is given higher concentartions of co2 (up to a certain extent)
- amount of chlorophyll
- chlorophyll is a photosynthetic pigment that absorbs light
- allows the reaction between water and co2 to occur (photosynthesi-s)
- chlorophyll is a photosynthetic pigment that absorbs light
- temperature
- the plant manufactures glucose from co2 and water using energy transferred from the environment to the chloroplasts by light
- you can artificially create the ideal conditions for photosynthesis
- heating
- artificial lighting
- extra co2
- the rate of photosynthesis is affected by temperature, light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration and the amount of chlorophyll
