Answer to Question 1

Light quality has a profound effect on the height of the plant: red/yellow light promotes
elongation, whereas green/blue light inhibits elongation and promotes shorter plants.
Light intensity also has a profound effect on plant growth: high light promotes shorter,
dark green plants with leaves that are typically brittle, whereas low light promotes
etiolation, which is exaggerated growth of the stem resulting in taller plants.

Answer to Question 2

 Light
 Temperature
 Air
