- Q2Temperature is a limiting factor of photosynthesis. Which of these is NOT a direct limiting factor of photosynthesis?wind speedlight intensitycarbon dioxide concentrationamount of chlorophyll60s
- Q3What is cellular respiration?an endothermic reaction that occurs in the mitochondria to release energy from glucosean exothermic reaction that occurs continuously in the cytoplasm of living cells to release energy from glucosean exothermic reaction that occurs in the mitochondria to release energy from glucosean endothermic reaction that occurs in the nucleus to release energy from glucose60s
- Q4How does increasing temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis?increases the rate of photosynthesis until it gets too high, then enzymes are denatured so the rate of photosynthesis quickly decreasesincreases the rate of photosynthesis until another factor becomes limitingdecreases the rate of photosynthesisincreases the rate of photosynthesis60s
- Q5There are two main types of respiration, aerobic and anaerobic. Which type of respiration occurs without oxygen?aerobicanaerobic60s
