The principle of limiting factors was proposed by
Options
A.Blackmann
B.Hill
C.Arnon
D.Liebig
Solution
According to the principle of limiting factors, when a proces is conditioned as to its rapidity by a number of separate factors, the rate of the process is limited by the pace of the slowest factor. It was enunciated by Blackmann, a British plant physiologist in 1905, according to him, light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration and temperature are the limiting factors in photosynthesis.
