What are the factors affect photosynthesis?

Factors that affect photosynthesis include light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration, temperature, water availability, and the presence of chlorophyll. These factors can either enhance or limit the rate of photosynthesis in plants.


Does the type of light affect photosynthesis?

Yes, the type of light does affect photosynthesis. Different wavelengths of light can impact the rate of photosynthesis in plants. Blue and red light are most effective for photosynthesis, while green light is less effective because it is reflected rather than absorbed by plants.


What affects the rate of photosynthesis?

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.

What are some factors that affect photosynthesis?

Some factors that affect photosynthesis include light intensity, carbon dioxide levels, temperature, and water availability. Changes in any of these factors can impact the rate of photosynthesis in plants.


How does photosynthesis affect water?

Photosynthesis affects water by using it as a raw material in the process of converting carbon dioxide and sunlight into glucose and oxygen. Water is split into hydrogen and oxygen during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, releasing oxygen as a byproduct.
