The rate of photosynthesis in relation to temperature forms a bell curve.
At low temperatures the enzymes responsibility for photosynthesis have very little energy so the rate of photosynthesis is very slow. If it is cold enough for water to freeze it can be very harmful to a plant.
As the temperature increases, the enzymes get more energy so the rate of photosynthesis increases.
If it gets too hot the enzymes begin to lose their shape (denature). This means they are unable to function properly and the rate of photosynthesis decreases again. Also, at higher temperatures the stomata close to prevent water loss. This also stops gas exchange which slows photosynthesis even further. If it is hot enough for water to boil this can be very harmful.
It tells you that temperature affects the rate of photosynthesis. At low temperature, the rate is slow, while at higher temperatures it is faster. This is true up to a point, known as the optimum temperature, where rate is fastest. After this, the rate slows down and stops as it becomes too hot, the enzymes become denatured and so can't carry out photosynthesis.

Usually, the colder it is outside (like in the winter) the rate of photosynthesis slows down. In the spring when the temperature is warmer than the winter, that is when the rate of photosynthesis starts to speed up.
It provides the enzymes responsible for photosyenthesis more energy, thus increasing the rate of photosynthesis.
Yes, it does.
Other things that affect the rate of photosynthesis is light intensity and the availability of water.
Photosynthesis is driven by enzymes. Enzymes are affected by temperature.
It increases the rate of photosynthesis or vice versa...
Yes, by quite a bit.
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.
The main variables which affect photosynthesis are light, CO2 concentration and temperature. You should be able to explain how each of these has their effect on the rate of photosynthesis. Although water is needed as a raw material for photosynthesis, if water is short, it will cause the plant to wilt (and thereby lose its ability to capture sunlight) long before it limits photosynthesis at the biochemical level. On a deeper level, other factors like amount of chlorophyll, availability of nutrients (eg Mg is needed for chlorophyll synthesis) will also affect the rate of photosynthesis, though these are rarely covered in discussion of this topic.

Leaf thickness is largely due to the thickness of the palisade mesophyll layer. This is where the chloroplast is located and therefore the site area in light is absorbed for photosynthesis. Thicker leaves means more chloroplast, and thus a faster 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.
The spider eat.
Yes, by quite a bit.
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 abiotic factors could affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant?

The higher the temperature, the higher the rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is affected by more than one factor. The other factors are light and carbon dioxide.
Temperature, light intensity, and the availability of water. Is this from Miller & Levine Bio p.241??
There are several factors.Temperature,CO2 concentration,H2O amound,light etc
