Question

Given two areas with equal sunlight and available water. Area I has a high amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide while Area II has a low amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide.

How does the rate of photosynthesis in Area I compare to that in Area II?

Answer 1

Answer:

(For USATestprep) C. The rate of photosynthesis increases with an increase in carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is one of the reactants in the process of photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis increases with an increase in carbon dioxide.. If carbon dioxide is limited, then photosynthesis would slow down.
