The evolution of spectra of the solar Fe I λ 532.4185 nm line averaged statistically over granules and intergranules of different brightness are studied. The observations were carried out with the Vacuum Tower Telescope at the Observatorio del Teide, Tenerife. The response to the fine structure of the lower photosphere turns out to be clearly different for the five minute oscillations of the velocity and the intensity observed in such spectra. The amplitudes of line intensity oscillations above intergranular lanes are nearly two times larger than over granules. The power spectrum of intensity oscillations is dominated by high-frequency oscillations, while the velocity oscillations gain power in the low-frequency band. The amplitudes of the velocity oscillations over granules and intergranules of the same brightness contrast are virtually equal. The most energetic velocity oscillations are shown to occur over areas where the largest convective velocities are observed.
