We often think of animals using oxygen and glucose for cellular respiration and producing carbon dioxide. Similarly, we might think of plants using carbon dioxide and sunlight for photosynthesis and ...

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts found within cells. It is the chloroplasts that contain the green pigment chlorophyll which absorbs light. The plant uses this glucose to grow as well as make ...

Whether it's a sea slug that looks like Shaun the Sheep that ... "It represents a biologically unique condition for ...

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts found within cells. It is the chloroplasts that contain the green pigment chlorophyll which absorbs light. The plant uses this glucose to grow as well as make ...

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae and certain types of bacteria synthesise carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and typically water, using light as an energy source. The process ...

Unlike plants, animals can’t carry out photosynthesis to generate our own oxygen, yet our brains rely on oxygen to make the massive amounts of energy needed to function. In a study published today ...

This cleaning service is becoming increasingly important as warming waters accelerate algal growth, which can smother seagrass and inhibit photosynthesis ... this tiny slug is performing an ...

We can do so through photoelectrochemistry, or artificial photosynthesis, a method that—just like photosynthesis—uses sunlight and water, as with electrolysis, to obtain hydrogen, without ...
