| 1. | Light intensity never saturates photosynthesis rates. |
| 2. | Light saturation occurs at 100% of full sunlight. |
| 3. | Light saturation occurs at 10% of full sunlight for most plants. |
| 4. | Shade plants require full sunlight to photosynthesize efficiently. |
| 1. | Water stress directly impacts the chlorophyll molecule, reducing its light absorption. |
| 2. | It limits the plant’s ability to carry out the Calvin cycle by decreasing ATP production. |
| 3. | Water stress causes stomatal closure, limiting CO2 uptake and lowering photosynthetic rates. |
| 4. | Reduced water decreases light intensity, impacting light reactions. |
