As the rate of photosynthesis increases, what do you think happens to the rate at which sugars are produced by the plant?

During photosynthesis, plants use the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose (sugar), which is used for energy. As the rate of photosynthesis increases, so does the rate the plants make glucose.

As the rate of photosynthesis increases, the rate of sugar production in plants should also increase.

During photosynthesis, green plants utilize the radiant energy from the sun to produce carbohydrates with water and carbon dioxide serving as raw materials.

Carbohydrate in the form of sugar is produced directly from the process of photosynthesis according to the following equation:

[tex]6CO_2 + 6H_2O ---> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2[/tex]

Thus, if the rate of photosynthesis should increase, it automatically translates to the same increase rate in sugar production, other things being equal.
