NEETBotanyPhotosynthesis in Higher Plants
Example of Limiting Factors Application A. Light 1. Can be a limiting factor if it is sub-optimal even if CO2 and temperature are optimal. B. Temperature 2. Can limit photosynthesis if it is too low despite adequate light and CO2. C. CO2 Concentration 3. Can be a limiting factor if it is low even if light and temperature conditions are ideal. D. Water 4. Essential for photosynthesis and can be a limiting factor if no
Options
- AA - 4, B - 2, C - 3, D - 1
- BA - 4, B - 3, C - 1, D - 2
- CA - 2, B - 4, C - 3, D - 1
- DA - 3, B - 1, C - 4, D - 2
Correct answer
A. A - 4, B - 2, C - 3, D - 1
Step-by-step solution
A - 4: Light can be a limiting factor for photosynthesis if it is not at optimal levels, regardless of CO2 and temperature conditions. B - 2: Temperature can limit photosynthesis if it is too low, even if light and CO2 levels are optimal. C - 3: CO2 concentration can be a limiting factor if it is too low, even if light and temperature are optimal. D - 1: Water is crucial for photosynthesis and can limit the process if it is not available, regardless of optimal light, CO2, and temperature conditions.
