Interpreting Graphs Biology

What does the trend in this graph about photosynthesis show?

• As the light intensity increases, so does the rate of photosynthesis - a positive correlation

• There is no correlation

• As the rate of photosynthesis increases, this leads to an increase in light intensity

• At first as the light intensity increases, so does the rate of photosynthesis, but after the optimum light intensity no further increase in the rate of photosynthesis is seen

What does this graph show?

• That the rate of photosynthesis is highest when levels of carbon dioxide and light are both low

• That the rate of photosynthesis is highest when levels of carbon dioxide and light are both high

• That the rate of photosynthesis is highest when levels of carbon dioxide are high and light levels are low

• That the rate of photosynthesis is highest when levels of carbon dioxide are low and light levels are high

What trends do we see in this graph?

• That the highest level of energy is supplied in the first minute of running at full speed for both aerobic and anaerobic respiration

• That the highest level of energy is supplied in the first minute of running at full speed for anaerobic respiration but not aerobic respiration

• That the highest level of energy is supplied in the first minute of running at full speed for aerobic respiration but not anaerobic respiration

• That the highest level of energy is not supplied in the first minute of running at full speed for either anaerobic respiration or aerobic respiration

What is the cause of the shape of this graph?

• The molecules collide more as the temperature increases

• The rate of reactions increases slowly with the initial increase in temperature and then decreases after the optimum temperature is reached

• There is a positive correlation between temperature and rate of reaction

• Above the optimum temperature, enzymes in any reaction will denature and this will reduce and then stop the rate of reaction

Tick ALL the boxes that are true about this graph

• The rate of respiration and photosynthesis and respiration are the same at about 9am and 7pm

• The rate of photosynthesis reaches its peak between about 2pm and 4pm

• Respiration happens continuously throughout the day

• Photosynthesis is at its lowest between 10pm and 10am
