Answer:

The third option, Light intensity has an impact on the rate of photosynthesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Light is a limiting factor at low intensity. Thus the rate of photosynthesis increases with an increase in light intensity. High light intensities affect the rate of photosynthesis. It increases the temperature of the leaves. Therefore, rate of transpiration increases
