why would there be little point in heating a greenhouse on a summer's day?
it will be hot enough anyway, so its a waste of energy. the rate of photosynthesis might stop if the temperature becomes too high.

what is meant by the term 'limiting factor' in photosynthesis?
factors such as light, temperature, and carbon dioxide, which might prevent the rate of photosynthesis increasing above a certain point.
6 of 9
what is the difference between mean and median?
