New research reveals the hidden role quantum mechanics plays in photosynthesis, opening the door for breakthroughs in clean ...

The efficient conversion of solar energy into storable forms of chemical energy is the dream of many engineers. Nature found ...

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 -- mainly carried out by plants -- is based on a remarkably efficient energy conversion process. To generate chemical energy, sunlight must first be captured and transported further.

Under the sea ice during the Arctic’s pitch-black polar night, cells power photosynthesis on the lowest light levels ever ...

This process, called photosynthesis, is essential to the global carbon cycle and organisms that conduct photosynthesis represent the lowest level in most food chains (Figure 1). Most living things ...

A study from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) highlights the role of quantum mechanics in photosynthesis, a process ...

Billions of tonnes of chlorophyll are made every year, on land and in the oceans, colouring the Earth and providing plants, algae and photosynthetic bacteria with the nanoscopic solar panels that ...

The green compound known as chlorophyll, found in plants, enables them to capture solar energy and convert it into food via the process of photosynthesis. It’s also suggested to be a beneficial ...

It's purported that a few drops of liquid chlorophyll with 8 ounces of water can improve energy levels and soothe pimples. Is ...
