A phyloGENETIC tree is not the same thing as a taxonomic tree, which is what Cal described. rRNA and molecular studies are used in phylogenetics to determine relations between species.
1 As the light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases. 2  However, the rate will not increase beyond a certain level of light intensity. 3  At high light intensities the rate becomes constant, even with further increases in light intensity, there are no increases in the rate.
Photosynthesis article provided by Encarta Encyclopedia 2000. PHOTOSYNTHESIS. INTRODUCTION. Photosynthesis, process by which green plants and certain other organisms use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose. In so doing, photosynthesis provides the basic energy source for virtually all organisms.
