Investigating the effect of a variable on the rate of photosynthesis The Reaction I am going to investigate how light intensity can affect the rate of photosynthesis. I will be aiming to change the amount of light intensity in my experiment to see how it affects photosynthesis. The reaction I am looking for is this: Carbon Dioxide + Water -->(Sunlight)--> Oxygen + Glucose There are three ways that can affect the rate of photosynthesis, light intensity, temperature and concentration of CO2. However I am going to use light intensity in my investigation. Prediction I think if I increase the light intensity, it will also increase the rate of photosynthesis. So if I double the light intensity, the rate of photosynthesis will also be doubled. Because photosynthesis needs light to get the reaction work, so I believe the more light intensity there is, it helps the plant to photosynthesis quicker. This will be the same to the...
