Based on graph,answer following questions:(1)At which points(A,B or C) in the curve is light a limiting factor? (2)What could be limiting factors in regions A? (3) What do C and D represent on the curve?

Dear student,
1) Light is the limiting factor at point A and B because as we increase the light intensity rate of photosynthesis increases.
2) Light is the limiting factor in region A.
3) C represents that if we increase the light intensity further there is no increase in rate of photosynthesis because at this point other factors are rate limiting like carbon dioxide, temperature etc. D represents the intensity of light which is increasing in the x axis leading to increase in rate of photosynthesis.

Regards
