Investigation to ascertain the extent to which light intensity is a limiting factor to photosynthesis. Gina Collier Abstract The aim of this investigation is to ascertain the extent to which light intensity is a limiting factor on the rate of photosynthesis of elodea canadensis. The hypothesis was that light intensity will have a significant effect on the rate of photosynthesis. As light intensity increases so too will the rate of photosynthesis. The length of gas bubble produced in five minutes was taken at differing light intensities and temperatures. The results showed that light intensity does have a significant effect on the rate of photosynthesis. As light intensity increased so too did rate of photosynthesis until it was limited by another factor such as temperature. When the temperature was raised, the rate of photosynthesis continued to rise. Introduction Null hypothesis: Light intensity will not have any effect on the rate of photosynthesis in...
