- a. A researcher set up a greenhouse to study the effects of different parameters that can influence the rate of photosynthesis. The researcher transplanted 3 plants of different species, a C3 plant, a C4 plant, and a CAM plant. Meanwhile, the researcher also measures the temperature (°C), humidity (%), and carbon dioxide content (%) in the greenhouse. The figure below is the recorded parameters within 24 hours. 0.60 50.0 0.50 40.0 0.40 30.0 0.30 20.0 0.20 0,10 10.0 0.00 0.0 Time (Duration 24 hours) Carbon dioxide (%) Temperature ("C) Other measured parameters are reported below: - • Humidity = 20% • Soil Moisture = Low Each plant was attached with a probe monitoring amount of glucose or complex carbohydrate produced during this experiment. Hypothetically, the carefully selected plants should produce the same amount of glucose in the same optimum environment (25°C, 65% humidity, 0.04% carbon dioxide, under sunlight). However, the plants' production of glucose varied in the record.
