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.
Increasing light intensity would tend to increase the rate of photosynthesis up to a point: limiting factors might then be the speed with which the photosystem machinery could process the incoming energy.
