The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the internal factors affecting photosynthesis in plants, we can break it down step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Photosynthesis**: Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy, producing glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water. 2. **Identifying Internal Factors**: Internal factors affecting photosynthesis are those that are inherent to the plant itself. These include: - The number of leaves - The size of leaves - The age of the plant - The orientation of leaves - The structure and number of mesophyll cells - The amount of chlorophyll present in the plant 3. **Determining Dependencies**: These internal factors are influenced by two main aspects: - **(A) Genetic Predisposition**: This refers to the inherent genetic traits of the plant that determine its characteristics, such as leaf size, shape, and chlorophyll content. - **(B) Growth of the Plant**: This encompasses the overall development and health of the plant, which affects how well it can perform photosynthesis. 4. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the plant or internal factors affecting photosynthesis are dependent on the (A) **genetic predisposition** and the (B) **growth of the plant**.
