The process of photosynthesis is plants producing oxygen. Two students were investigating the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis of elodea, an aquatic plant. They exposed elodea to different amounts of light. After exposing the elodea to different amounts of light, the students counted the number of bubbles of oxygen produced in the water to determine the rate of photosynthesis.
