Question

disadvantages of photosynthesis

Answer 1

Answer:

Disadvantages include:

Materials used for artificial photosynthesis often corrode in water, so they may be less stable than photovoltaics over long periods of time. Most hydrogen catalysts are very sensitive to oxygen, being inactivated or degraded in its presence; also, photodamage may occur over time.

Answer 2

Answer:

The main drawback of this method is that it is destructive to the sample under test and it is not accurate for photosynthesis measurements in low light, conditions as the loss of 14CO2 by photorespiration is relatively large and affects the estimation.
