Photosynthesis can be limited by several factors including light intensity, temperature, and carbon dioxide levels. As light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis also increases until it reaches a maximum level where another factor becomes limiting. Anything in short supply that is needed for photosynthesis, such as light, heat, or carbon dioxide, can act as a limiting factor to slow the rate of photosynthesis.
