Amaranth plants were exposed to high temperatures to see how it affects their photosynthesis. High temperature stress decreased the efficiency of photosynthesis in the plants, affecting their ability to absorb and convert light energy. This shows that amaranth plants are very sensitive to high temperatures, which can disrupt their ability to use light for energy.
