a. in reviewing the data from the floating disk experiment, which factor had a greater impact on the rate of photosynthesis (light intensity or concentration of carbon dioxide)?

The intensity of light had greater impact on the rate of photosynthesis. It was observed that the jar in which the intensity of light was high, large amount of oxygen was produced as compared to the jar in which the intensity of light was low.  

In the process of photosynthesis, oxygen is produced from the carbon dioxide. As the oxygen in the jar increases, the leaf disk rises with in the jar which also signifies the higher oxygen production with higher rate of photosynthesis in presence of high intensity of light.  

humans are now responsible for causing changes in the environment that hurt animals and plant species. we take up more space on earth for our homes and cities. we pollute habitats. human activity often changes or destroys the habitats that plants and animals need to survive.
