However from B - C the rate of photosynthesis starts to level off. I think that if I'd done another measurement at 5cm the rate of photosynthesis would have levelled off completely. Secondary Data My secondary data is the results that another boy in my class got. From the graphs I can see that his graph of, the rate of photosynthesis against light intensity, backs my graph up very well as they both have a very...
