8.

Why do plants need sunlight for photosynthesis?

a)

The light creates heat needed for photosynthesis to occur

b)

The light provides the energy needed to power photosynthesis

c)

Plants can't absorb carbon dioxide in darkness

d)

Plants can't absorb water in darkness

9.

hydrogen
b)
oxygen
c)
nitrogen
d)
carbon dioxide
10.
How would light intensity generally affect the rate of photosynthesis?
a)
Increases the rate, up to a point
b)
Increases the rate
c)
Decreases the rate
d)
No relationship to the rate
11.
How would the concentration of CO2 in water affect photosynthesis?
a)
The higher the CO2, the greater the rate
b)
The higher the CO2, the lower the rate
c)
CO2 concentration doesn't affect photosynthesis
d)
a greater rate of photosynthesis causes higher CO2 concentrations 
12.
If we enclosed a plant in an air-proof bottle, what would happen to the rate of photosynthesis 
a)
Gradually slow down to zero because CO2 is used up
b)
Shows a constant rate as long as the light remains on
c)
Gradually speeds up because O2 builds up
