Content: Here are some of the factors affecting photosynthesis. Light Intensity: An increased light intensity leads to a high rate of photosynthesis and a low light intensity would mean low rate of photosynthesis. Concentration of CO 2: Higher carbon dioxide concentration increases the rate of photosynthesis. Normally the carbon dioxide concentration of 0.03 to 0.04 percent is sufficient for photosynthesis. Temperature: An efficient photosynthesis requires an optimum temperature range between 25 to 35 o C.
Water: Water is an essential factor for photosynthesis. The lack of water also leads to a problem for carbon dioxide intake.
