Problem 16

Answer 1

Background and context

The green plants, algae, cyanobacteria, and photosynthetic protists can absorb solar radiation and convert them into chemical energy. The availability of light can play an important role in the process of photosynthesis because the intensity, duration, and quality can affect the amount of photosynthesis. Apart from this, the availability of nutrients in the aquatic system is also of utmost importance for the generation of energy.
