The video tutorial explains an experiment conducted to study the relationship between light intensity and the rate of photosynthesis in pondweed. The experiment setup involves placing pondweed in a boiling tube with a hydrogen carbonate solution and varying the distance of a light bulb to measure the number of bubbles produced. The results are recorded in a tally chart and graphed to show a non-linear trend. The analysis concludes that as light intensity decreases, the rate of photosynthesis also decreases, supporting the hypothesis.
