The reason of higher rate of photosynthesis of lily plant than wheat plant.
We know that the rate of photosynthesis depends on some factors. Some of these are the shape and surface area of leaves, size of the stomata. In the case of lily, the leaves are larger compared to wheat leaves. As a result, lily plants have leaves with greater surface area and larger stomata. This makes … Read more
What is photolysis?

What the rate of photosynthesis would be in a newly developed leaf?
In a newly formed leaf, the rate of photosynthesis is low. In a new leaf, the number of chloroplast i.e amount of chlorophyll is low. Again, photosynthesis depends on the amount of chlorophyll. In a newly formed leaf, deficient amount of chlorophyll or the amount of chlorophyll being less leads to low rate of photosynthesis … Read more
