What can the rate of photosynthesis depend on?

Photosynthesis is a very complex biochemical process. It is characteristic of most plants, some species of protozoa and animals. We know that during this process, CO2 is absorbed from the atmosphere and water from the soil. The process is triggered by light. But this is a very simplified explanation. The dark phase is also very important. That is, photosynthesis is affected by the presence of inorganic substances, an intense light flux and its absence for an intensive synthesis of glucose.
