How Light Intensity Affects the Rate of Photosynthesis Aim: 'To determine whether or not different light intensities affect the rate of photosynthesis in Canadian Pondweed' Equation: Sunlight Carbon Dioxide + Water Oxygen + Glucose Chlorophyll 6CO2 6H20 602 C6H12O6 Prediction: Seeing as the more light a plant got, within reason, the faster a plant would photosynthesise. Thus, I expect that the higher the light intensity, the higher the rate of photosynthesis. I also predict that as light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis will increase at a relative rate until the maximum level of light, at which point the level of increase in photosynthesis will decrease and eventually even out, as a limiting factor, probable temperature, will limit it at this point. Preliminary Experiment: In order to attain an accurate experiment, I did a preliminary experiment to determine an appropriate range of distances as to how far my lamp would be placed from the plant.
