Match the following factors influencing the rate of photosynthesis (Column I) with their primary mechanism of impact on the process (Column II). Column I (Factor) A. Light B. Temperature C. CO₂ concentration D. Water stress Column II (Primary Impact/Mechanism) i. Primarily affects the rate of dark reactions due to enzymatic control. ii. Acts as the direct energy source for photochemical reactions and electron transport. iii. Leads to stomatal closure, indirectly reducing the availability of a key reactant. iv. Serves as the crucial carbon substrate for the carboxylation step of the Calvin cycle.
