How light intensity effects the Rate of photo synthesis. Aim The aim of my experiment is to find out how light intensity affects the rate of photosynthesis. Prediction I predict that as the light intensity increases that the rate of photosynthesis will increase in proportion, so for example if you increase the light intensity from 10cm away to 20 cm away form a stationary plant. There for the rate of photosynthesis will decrease proportionally with the …

…For example I could have examined other variables such as lack of air or no soil or changes in water amounts given to the process of photosynthesis etc. Also instead of measuring the length of the oxygen bubble I could have taken measurements changing the light intensity by percentage (%) or power of the light. I had no problems due to the use of the computer program and overall I felt the experiment went well. average 4.43 4.33 3.96 3.9 3.46 2.96 2.6 2.56 1.83 1.36 1.1
