PHOTOSYNTHESIS Blackman: 1920s
| Experiment 2 |
Light Intensity and CO2 Concentration |
|
 |
| |
(Note ambient [CO2] = 0.035% or 350 ppm) |
| Observation |
CO2 limits the rate of photosynthesis at high light
intensities (C) i.e. when light is not a limiting factor. |
| Conclusion |
Carbon fixation takes place in the Light Independent Reaction
It is an enzyme controlled process |
