Acid rain can affect the rate of photosynthesis by deceasing the pH of the soil. As acid rain contains weak sulfuric acid and many more different solvents therefore will decease the pH (8->6). Having the incorrect pH may kill some of the plants tissues therefore limits photosynthesis.

How do different pigments colors affect the rate of photosynthesis?
The wavelength of a color is directly related to the rate of photosynthesis, with longer wavelengths leading to higher rates of photosynthesis.
How do spider mites affect the rate of photosynthesis?
The spider eat.
What happens to the rate of photosynthesis when there is no rainfall?
If the said plant is rain fed and the pertinent soil is very low in water content then obviously the photosynthetic rate would be low or no at all. Second condition, if the plant is well irrigated then no rainfall does not affect its photosynthetic rate.
What are the factors photosynthesis?
The intensity of light, concentration of carbon dioxide and temperature are the three main factors that affect photosynthesis. They determine the rate at which photosynthesis occurs.
What are three primary factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis?
Temperature, light intensity, and the availability of water. Is this from Miller & Levine Bio p.241??
How does enzyme action affect the rate of photosynthesis?
It increases the rate of photosynthesis or vice versa...
How can acid affect the rate of weathering?
Acid acts as a catalyst, causing water-releated weathering to happen more quickly. This is why acid rain is so potentially harmful. Pollutants in the air mix with water in rain giving the rain an acidic quality, which speeds up weathering.

Do humans have a role in acid rain or the rate of it?
yes
How do spider mites affect the rate of photosynthesis?
The spider eat.
Do acid rain increase or decrease the rate of weathering?
Increases it.
Why does the rain forest floor not have a high rate of photosynthesis?
A rain forest blocks most of the sun before it gets to the dirt.
Does the plant type affect photosynthesis rate?
Yes, by quite a bit.
What happens to the rate of photosynthesis when there is no rainfall?
If the said plant is rain fed and the pertinent soil is very low in water content then obviously the photosynthetic rate would be low or no at all. Second condition, if the plant is well irrigated then no rainfall does not affect its photosynthetic rate.
What factor would least effect upon the rate of photosynthesis in a plant?
The breathing rate of cats. Actually, wait, that might affect photosynthesis. Hmm...good question. If you think about, everything affects photosynthesis. Here is a better question: What DOESN'T affect photosynthsis?
What are some factors that could affect the amount of photosynthesis in a plant?
What abiotic factors could affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant?
Does carbonic acid affect your pulse rate?
yes
