LIGHT INTENSITIES.
Fill in the blanks.
In the dark, only the process of _____________ occurs.
_______________________ is released to the atmosphere
In dim light that is _________ light intensity, both processes of _____________
and ______________ occur. The amount of carbon dioxide released during
_____________ is the _______ as the amount of carbon dioxide used up during
_____________ . This is because the rate of respiration is ________ to the rate
of _________________ .
In bright light that is _________ light intensity, the absorption of carbon dioxide
is _______ than the release of carbon dioxide. This is because rate of
photosynthesis is ____________ than the rate of respiration. Hence more carbon
dioxide is needed.
