Rate of photosynthesis

Rate of photosynthesis

1. Limiting factors

   • light, temperature and carbon dioxide

2. Not enough light slows down the rate of photosynthesis

3. Too little Carbon dioxide also slows it down

4. The temperature has to be just right

5. Experiements

   • Canadian pondweed
     • measure the amount of oxygen produced in a given time to show how fast photosynthesis is happening
     • Or you could count the bubbles given off, if you want to be accurate you could collect oxygen in gas syringe.
