Photosynthesis Under Variable Environmental Conditions

Classroom/Laboratory Activity

A simple simulator that allows users to change a range of variables such as the color of light, brightness of light, and carbon dioxide concentration, and then note their impact on the photosynthetic efficiency of a plant.

Use this tool to help your students find answers to:

  1. What are the factors that influence photosynthesis?
  2. How does the increase in carbon dioxide levels affect the rate of photosynthesis?
