Sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water are required for photosynthesis. examine the graph. what is the best explanation for the relationship between light intensity and the rate of photosynthesis.
a) as light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis decreases.
b) as light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases as well.
c) light is required for photosynthesis, but light intensity doesn't influence the rate of photosynthesis.
d) as light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases until photosynthesis reaches its maximum rate.

D) As light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases until photosynthesis reaches its maximum rate.

Explanation:

When the plant is in the dark, it will only consume oxygen since it is only breathing and not performing photosynthesis. When exposed to light that gradually increases in intensity, at any given moment, all the oxygen produced in photosynthesis will be used in photosynthesis itself.

This point is called the photic or light compensation point. From this point on, the increasing amount of light increases photosynthesis rates. However, at some point, photosynthesis rates stabilize, as all chlorophyll molecules are saturated with light energy (light saturation point).

surface modification is a versatile tool and has been widely used in material science and engineering that has significantly facilitated the study and characterization of complex materials. at  matexcel, experienced experts in surface science can offer tailored efforts to meet the specific needs from our clients.

the correct answer is option b

behavioral response need communication and thus co-ordination at several levels such as interaction among cells, organ system and the entire organism.

behavioral response produces both internal and environmental stimulus.
