Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which environmental factor can limit the rate of photosynthesis?
  • Step 1: Understand that photosynthesis is the process plants use to make food using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.
  • Step 2: Recognize that certain environmental factors can affect how well photosynthesis happens.
  • Step 3: Identify temperature as one of these factors, meaning how hot or cold it is can influence photosynthesis.
  • Step 4: Learn that enzymes are special proteins that help speed up chemical reactions in plants, including photosynthesis.
  • Step 5: Realize that enzymes work best at certain temperatures. If it gets too hot or too cold, these enzymes can slow down or stop working.
  • Step 6: Conclude that if the temperature is not ideal, it can limit the rate at which photosynthesis occurs.
