Study Notes
Factors Affecting Photosynthesis
- Temperature affects the rate of photosynthesis, with enzymes functioning best between 0°C and 35°C.
- Temperatures above or below this range may slow down photosynthesis, and at very low temperatures, photosynthesis may stop entirely.
Light Intensity and Photosynthesis
- High light intensity increases the rate of photosynthesis.
- Beyond a certain level of light intensity, the rate of photosynthesis reaches its maximum.
Water Availability and Photosynthesis
- A shortage of water can slow or even stop photosynthesis.
- Plants in dry conditions often have waxy coatings on their leaves to reduce water loss.
