Which of the following options best explains how less chlorophyll would affect the proces of
photosynthesis in plants?
6.
A. It would increase the rate of photosynthesis because of the increased production of food.
B. It would limit the amount water plants are able to take in, resulting in a slower rate of
photosynthesis.
C. It would increase the production of oxygen because the plant would need to work hard to
feed themselves.
С.
D. It would limit the amount of light absorbed by the plant and decrease the amount of food
the plant is able to produce for itself.

- Photosynthesis A. is the only energy-generating pathway for plants, cyanobacteria, and algae. B. consist two stages: light-dependent stage which fix COâ‚‚, light-independent stage which generate glucose. C. can capture and convert energy from light to chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. D. oxidize organic carbon molecule to COâ‚‚, while reduce water to oxygen.arrow_forwardIn 1941, biologists exposed photosynthesizing cells to water containing a heavy oxygen isotope, designated 180.
