Answer:
With 6 we should multiply gross photosynthesis (as we were measuring gross photosynthesis for 10 min).
Explanation:
According to this question:-
Net photosynthesis- 3mm/20min- 1.5mm/10min
Cellular respiration- 1mm/15min- 0.66mm/10min
Gross photosynthesis = Net photosynthesis + Cellular respiration = 1.5+0.66 = 2.16 (mm/10min)
Rate of photosynthesis = (gross photosynthesis)6 = 2.16 *6 = 12.96 mm/hr
As we gage the photosynthesis rate in hr.
The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.
With 6 we should always multiply gross photosynthesis (as we were measuring gross photosynthesis for 10 min).
This means that the reactants, six CO2 molecules, and 6 water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and 6 oxygen molecules, the products.
Gross photosynthesis = Net photosynthesis + respiration = 1.5+0.66 = 2.16 (mm/10min)
Rate of photosynthesis = (gross photosynthesis)6 = 2.16 *6 = 12.96 mm/hr
As we gauge the photosynthesis rate in hr.
Therefore, the correct calculation of photosynthesis is 6=2.16=12.96mm/hr.
