Question

1. Which gas would the leaf disks produce if they were carrying out the light-dependent reaction? What would this cause them to do?
2. Predict how light intensity would affect the light reaction by drawing a curve on the following graph:

3.

Answer 1

Answer:

Because the leaf disks are living plant material that still require energy, they are simultaneously using O2 gas during respiration and producing O2 gas during photosynthesis. 2.As light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis will increase as long as other factors are in adequate supply.
