Question

Scientists have found that although plants require light to carry on photosynthesis, very high levels of sunlight can kill some plants. This illustrates that many biochemical processes may occur *(1) more rapidly when temperatures are very high(2) within a specific range of conditions(3) best in the absence of abiotic factors(4) even if homeostasis is disrupted

Answer 1

Plants use sunlight to photosynthesize, but different plants have different needs. Ornamental plants use less sunlight compared to crop plants that need lots of sunlight to grow. The pigments of plants, chlorophyll a and b, absorb different wavelengths of the visible spectrum. Chlorophyll a absorbs either blue or red light, and chlorophyll b absorbs blue and red-orange lights.

More light absorbs means a faster rate of photosynthesis occurring. More light intensity means more energy produced, but it will level off since other factors limit the rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is not just about the absorption of light, it needs the combination of the right amount of light, water, and carbon dioxide.

ANSWER: "This illustrates that many biochemical processes may occur (2) within a specific range of conditions.
