Why is photosynthesis impacted by a limited nitrogen supply?
Fewer photosynthetic enzymes are produced
How is primary productivity limited by water?
primary productivity is production carried out by plants during photosynthesis, and water is the only hydrogen donour in cyclic and noncyclic phosphorelation of photosynthesis
Why does competition happen?
Competition happens because there are limited resources in an ecosystem.
What are two reasons why a cells growth is limited?
Information "overload" and Exchanging Materials
What do you think can affect the rate of photosynthesis?
The rate of photosynthesis will almost always decrease by whichever of several factors is lowest. Some of these include: 1)Sunlight - its Intensity & wavelength. 2)Temperature 3)CO2 and O2 - availability Sunlight Generally the more light there is the more photosynthesis occurs. This is true up to a point where the plant has reached maximum photosynthesis levels, so any increase in light intensity will not affect the plant further. Temperature Generally a higher temperature is better than cold temperatures for photosynthesis. However if it is humid and the air is saturated with water vapor, photosynthesis is limited. This is because the water vapor being expelled cannot leave and go into the air, as there isn't a concentration difference for it to diffuse across. So the water vapor sits in the leaf, stopping photosynthesis. CO2 Basically the more CO2 in the air, the better the rate of photosynthesis. Of course CO2 is taken in during the daytime, and if its content was less that normal, photosynthesis couldn't happen normally. Fertilizers increase the number of soil fungi and bacteria, thus increasing the levels of CO2 from their respiration and decomposition processes. Water and CO2 Plants need water for photosynthesis. If they lack it, they wilt. When they have a deficiency of water, their stoma close, so CO2 cannot diffuse into the leaves. So CO2 is also the limiting factor, although it is as a result of lack of water.

Why does power of attorney only last a year?
Generally, unless limited in time within the document that created it, a Power of Attorney remains effective until it is revoked or until the principal becomes incapacitated. A Durable Power of Attorney remains effective even if the principal becomes incapacitated. If you have a POA that is limited to a one-year period then that was the choice of the principal (the person who granted the POA).
Do roots photosynthesize?
No they could not. The cells within the plant roots haven't been exposed to sunlight, so they have adapted by losing their chloroplast, the organelles needed for photosynthesis.
How is primary productivity limited by water?
primary productivity is production carried out by plants during photosynthesis, and water is the only hydrogen donour in cyclic and noncyclic phosphorelation of photosynthesis
Why are The roots of plants are important to photosynthesis?
Water used in photosynthesis by plants is made available by roots. That is why roots of plants are important to photosynthesis in terrestrial plants. Aqatic plants absorb water from their free surface, hence role of roots in these plants is limited.

Why does competition happen?
Competition happens because there are limited resources in an ecosystem.
Is aluminium ore a limited resource?
Bauxite is the main ore from which we get aluminum [aluminium], and of course it is limited. It happens to be relatively abundant, but it is limited nonetheless. All mineral resources are limited.
What happens exactly when you shake a bottle of pop why does the Co2 want to leave?
its fairly simple. the co2 becomes excited and needs to expand within the limited space. that's why the pressure builds and when you open the top after shaking it sprays everywhere.
Why do entries into the bridging table have a limited lifetime?
An entry is deleted if the port becomes inactive
