Question

question 28 impact of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis heres a graph - based multiple choice question using the data above: question: the graph shows the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis. which conclusion can best be drawn from the data? a the rate of photosynthesis increases with light intensity but eventually levels off due to limiting factors b light intensity has no effect on the rate of photosynthesis. c photosynthesis decreases at high light intensities because chlorophyll is destroyed. d the rate of photosynthesis increases indefinitely as light intensity increases.

Explanation:

The graph shows the rate of photosynthesis increases with light intensity initially, then plateaus. This indicates light is a limiting factor at low intensities, but other factors limit it at high intensities.

Answer:

a. The rate of photosynthesis increases with light intensity but eventually levels off due to limiting factors.
