Transcribed Image Text:**Graph 1: Amount of Chlorophyll with Different Amounts of Light**
This graph illustrates the relationship between light intensity and chlorophyll production over time. Chlorophyll content is measured in micrograms per gram (µg/g) and plotted over a period of 48 hours.
- **X-Axis (Horizontal):** Represents time in hours, starting from 0 to 48.
- **Y-Axis (Vertical):** Represents the amount of chlorophyll in µg/g, ranging from 0 to 600.
**Key Observations:**
1. **Low Light (Solid Line):**
- Initially, there is a gradual increase in chlorophyll content.
- From 0 to 12 hours, the increase is modest.
- A noticeable rise is observed between 24 to 48 hours, reflecting a steady growth.
2. **Moderate Light (Dashed Line):**
- Chlorophyll content starts low, similar to the low light conditions.
- A gradual increase is observed up to 12 hours.
- From 12 to 48 hours, particularly after 24 hours, there is a sharp and significant increase in chlorophyll content, reaching close to 600 µg/g.
**Conclusion:**
The graph indicates that moderate light conditions result in a more substantial increase in chlorophyll production over time compared to low light conditions. This demonstrates how light intensity can significantly influence chlorophyll levels in plants.
