Read the following statements and choose the following option: 1. Incident light affects CO2 fixation rate 2. Usually one factor is not the major cause or is the one that limits the rate of photosynthesis 3. Most of the photosynthesis takes place in the blue and green regions of the spectrum. 4. These are named in the sequence in which they function during the light reaction., and not in the sequence of their discove

Options

  1. ABoth 1 and 3 is correct
  2. BBoth 1 and 2 is incorrect
  3. COnly 4 is correct
  4. DOnly 1 is correct

Correct answer

D. Only 1 is correct

Step-by-step solution

While discussing light as a factor that affects photosynthesis, There is a linear relationship between incident light and CO2 fixation rates at low light intensities.
