Question

answer questions 5 - 6 using the graph and the following information.

1. at point x on the graph, what is the difference between the rates of photosynthesis at 20°c and 30°c?

a. the rate is greater at 20°c.
b. the rate is greater at 30°c.
c. the rates are about the same.

1. at point y on the graph, what is the difference between the rates of photosynthesis at 20°c and 30°c?

a. the rate is greater at 20°c.
b. the rate is greater at 30°c.
c. the rates are about the same.

Explanation:

To answer question 5, we analyze the graph at point X. At this point, the rate of photosynthesis at 30°C is higher than at 20°C. For question 6, at point Y, the two curves (representing 20°C and 30°C) intersect, indicating the rates are the same.

Answer:

1. b. The rate is greater at 30°C.
2. c. The rates are about the same.
