Question

Why is the rate of photosynthesis in plants low both at lower and higher temperatures?
Is green light most or least useful in photosynthesis and why?

Answer 1

A simple word equation that can be used to describe the process of photosynthesis is carbon dioxide + water —> glucose + oxygen + water. A balanced chemical equation for the process can be written as 6CO2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2. Overall, photosynthesisuses light energy to convert carbon dioxide into a carbohydrate.
