What is the minimum intensity a sound can have?

The minimum of sound intensity can be theoretically as low as zero decibels. But you seem to mean what the human threshold of hearing is. That reference sound intensity is 10^−12 W/m² equal to 0 dB sound intensity level. Our eardrums are moved by the sound pressure. The reference sound pressure at the human threshold of hearing is po = 20 µPa equal to 0 dB sound pressure level (SPL).

No. F4 will cycle you through the reference types. F2 brings you into edit mode.

What is a sound with low volume?

Reference sound intensity Io = 10^−12 W/m² (Threshold of human hearing). Reference sound intensity level LIo = 0 dB-SIL (Threshold of human hearing intensity level). Sound intensity is a sound energy quantity. Our eardrums are moved by sound pressure variations. That is a sound field quantity. Reference sound pressure po = 20 µPa = 2×10^−5 Pa (Threshold of human hearing). Reference sound pressure level Lpo = 0 dB-SPL (Threshold of human sound pressure hearing level).


What does Respiration mean referring to cycle and photosynthesis?

Im not entirely sure as to what you mean by "cycle". However, I believe that in reference to photosynthesis I belive that respiration is the two-part process of taking in co2 to react with h2o in the production of glucose, and then also the excretion of the waste product of oxygen.
