Suppose you are able to manipulate a plant’s access to components in the photosynthesis equation. Drag each label to the appropriate bin to predict how that action will affect plant growth. For each increase or decrease, assume that every other component of the photosynthesis equation is unlimited. ResetHelp Decrease plant growth No effect on plant growth Increase plant growth

Answer:

The correct answer is -

Decrease plant growth :

decrease sunlight, decrease CO2, decrease H2O

No effect :

increase O2, decrease O2, increase C6H12O6, decrease C6H12O6

increase plant growth:

increase CO2, increase sunlight, increase H2O

Step-by-step explanation:

Low light exposure to the plant affects the production of oxygen and glucose negatively which affect the growth of the plant. Decrease CO2 will be affect the growth of the plant similarly as light and water molecules which is decreased in plant growth.

Increase in the in production of the products which are 02, glucose, will have no effect in plant growth though increase in the carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight will positively affect plant growth.

Thus, the correct answer is -

Decrease plant growth :

decrease sunlight, decrease CO2, decrease H2O

No effect :

increase O2, decrease O2, increase C6H12O6, decrease C6H12O6

increase plant growth:

increase CO2, increase sunlight, increase H2O
