was to investigate the effect of varying the distance (cm) of the Elodea plant from the light source at (5‚ 15‚ 25‚ 35 and 45 (cm)) (±0.05) on the photosynthetic rate by counting the number of oxygen bubbles rising up the test tube per minute (bubbles min^(-1)). The hypothesis was supported because as the light intensity increased‚ the rate at which oxygen bubbles rising to the top of the test tube also increased – for example‚ at the closest distance of 5 cm‚ the rate of photosynthesis was at its
