6.

For both groups of plants, what BEST describes the relationship between light intensity and rate of photosynthesis?

a)
  • The rate of photosynthesis increases with light intensity, and might be limited by other factors such as water and temperature.

b)
  • The rate of photosynthesis increases with light intensity, and it increases without limit.

c)
  • The rate of photosynthesis is independent of light intensity, but may be limited by other factors such as water and temperature.

d)

The rate of photosynthesis is at a maximum over a narrow range of light intensities.
