14
Q
Write a Definition of a Limiting Factor?
A
- Limiting factor is something that stops photosynthesis from happening any faster.
15
Q
In 4 steps how is light a Limiting factor and what will happen to the graph?
A
- 1) First The more light there is the faster photosynthesis will happen.
- 2) This Means that the rate of photosynthesis Depends the amount of light.
- 3) Then After a certain point the Graph will flatten.
- 4) This is because Photosynthesis wont go any faster Even if you increase the light intensity.
16
Q
Explain why the Light Graph Flattens?
A
- It Flattens because light is no longer the limiting factor and its temperature or CO₂.
17
Q
In 3 steps how is CO₂ a Limiting factor and what will happen to the graph?
A
- 1) The more CO₂ there is the faster photosynthesis happens.
- 2) This means the amount of CO₂ is the limiting factor.
- 3) Then after a certain point Photosynthesis wont go any faster because CO₂ is no longer the limiting factor.
18
Q
If There is Plenty of Light and (______) then it must be (________________) that’s the limiting factor.
A
- CO₂ and Temperature
19
Q
In 2 steps how is Temperature the limiting factor and Why?
A
- 1) Usually if the temperature is the limiting factor its because it too low.
- 2) This is because enzymes need photosynthesis to work more slowly at low temperatures.
20
Q
In 2 Steps What happens if the plant gets hot and give a Explanation?
A
- 1) if the plant gets hot Photosynthesis Won’t Happen at all.
- 2) This is Because the enzymes are damaged is the Temperature is too high.
21
Q
What Temperatures Will Destroy Enzymes?
A
Over about 45°C
22
Q
In 8 Steps Describe the Effect on Light Intensity (PRACTICAL)
A
- 1) Start by Taking a Boiling Tube and placing it 10 cm away from an LED Light Source.
- 2) Next fill the boiling tube with Sodium hydrogen carbonate solution.
- 3) Then put a piece of pondweed into the boiling tube with the cut end at the top.
- 4) Next Leave The pondweed for 5 Minutes to acclimate to the conditions of the boiling tube.
- 5) Then Bubbles of Oxygen Should be produced from the cut end of the pondweed.
- 6) Start a stopwatch and count how many bubbles are produced in 1 minute.
- 7) Then Repeat in 2 more times to calculate the mean.
- 8) And do the whole experiment again and move the boiling tube to 20 cm,30 cm and 40cm.
23
Q
What Would Happen if you Use a Regular Light Bulb?
A
You would have Put the Boiling tube in a Beaker of Water.
- This is because it absorbs the heat produced by the bulb
24
Q
Why should you use a LED Light source and Sodium Hydrogen carbonate?
A
- A LED light source is used as they don’t Release lots of Heat.
- Sodium Hydrogen carbonate solution Releases CO₂ which is needed for photosynthesis.

49
What Happens To Your Muscles when you Exercise and Where does the Energy Come From?
- When You Exercise some of Your Muscle contract more often.
- This means you need more energy.
- This Energy comes from increased respiration.
50

What Will happen to your blood if the breathing rate and Breath Volume Increase?
- If The breathing rate and breath volume increase oxygen gets into your blood quicker.
54
Your Heart Rate (_______________) to get oxygenated blood around the body faster.
Increases
55
What Happens When You Do Really Hard Exercise?
- When you do really hard exercise Your Body Can't Supply oxygen to your Muscle Quickly Enough.
- This means your muscles start doing anaerobic Respirations.
56
What Problems can Hard Exercise cause and What Build up ?
- Latics Acid starts building up in the muscle which can get painful.
- Long periods of exercise can cause muscle fatigue.
57
Write a Definition of Muscle Fatigue?
- Muscle Fatigue is when muscle get tired and stop contracting efficiently.
58
In 3 Steps What Can can Anaerobic Respiration Also Cause?
- 1) After anaerobic respiration stops you will have a oxygen debt.
- 2) Your lungs,Heart and blood couldn't keep up with the demand for oxygen so you have to repay the oxygen that don't get to your muscle in time.
- 3) This means you have to keep breathing hard for a while after you stop this then transports more oxygen into your blood which is transported to the muscle cells.
59
Write a Definition of a Oxygen Debt?
- An Oxygen debt is the amount of extra oxygen your body needs after exercise.
