How does changing the light intensity effect photosynthesis and why?

By changing the light intensity the rate of photosynthesis will either increase or decrease because it is one of the factors that affects photosynthesis. If you increase the light intensity the rate increases but if you decrease the light intensity the rate decreases.


How pollution affects photosynthesis?

this is a really tough question to answer...anyway few points are 1. Dry deposition of particles and gases on the plant decreases the photosynthesis[Bergin et al., 2001 and sitch et al., 2007]. But nitrogen deposition is good for plants. 2.Acid rain is hazardous to the plant health. Pollution (particles present in the atmosphere) increases the diffuse radiation and this icreases photosynthesis. vijayakumar


How does enzyme action affect the rate of photosynthesis?

It increases the rate of photosynthesis or vice versa...


How does over supply or under supply of the Co2 concentration affects the rate of photosynthesis?

OVERSUPPLY OF SUNLIGHT the plant will be dry and died UNDERSUPPLY OF SUNLIGHT the plant will be withered


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.

Does the solar eclipse affects the photosynthesis?

Yes it affects the process of photosynthesis. As solar eclipse block out some sunlight, the rate of photosynthesis will be slower.

How do you increase the rate the respiration and Photosynthesis in the living thing?

more sun, soil and water. Stop pollution.


Does the amount of sunlight affect a leaf?

Yes, it affects the rate of photosynthesis and the grana(where light reactions occur).


How temperature affects photosynthesis not only about its rate?

Photosynthesis happens rapidly when there is sunlight. Sunlight is a main factor necessary for Photosynthesis. So if the temperature is not hot enough, photosynthesis might not happen as rapidly as it happens when the sunlight is directly there.


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?

How does air pollution reduce the rate of photosynthesis?

Harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide can block out light that is needed for photosynthesis. Air pollution dissolves with the water vapor in the atmosphere making the water acidic, which then forms acid rain. This harms the leaves of a plant, which reduces how well it can carry out the stage of photosynthesis slowing the rate down. Photosynthesis is an essential process within the ecosystem. Using sunlight, carbon dioxide and water, plants manufacture (make) food and energy in a chemical process which occurs in plant leaves.


What does pollution affect?

Positively, pollution affects biodiversity by potentially increasing the mutation rate and applying pressure or stimuli to populations to move or adapt. Negatively, pollution can harm or kill members of a population indiscriminately, or reduce fecundity. They will also not be able to have sex as much


What affects land pollution?
