That’s because scientists from the University of Tokyo have found a method that allows animals to photosynthesise. With their ...

But, like us, they require fairly regular sustenance, which they create via photosynthesis. This seemingly magical process ...

The team created an innovative, nature-inspired hydrogel — a 3D network of polymer material that rapidly absorbs and retains ...

Similarly, we might think of plants using carbon dioxide and sunlight for photosynthesis and producing oxygen and glucose. How can we determine whether carbon dioxide is actually being used or ...

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 ...

As the festive season approaches, evergreen conifers like spruce and pine adorn homes worldwide. But while Christmas trees ...

During natural photosynthesis, chlorophyll absorbs light energy and transfers electrons to convert it into chemical energy. Artificial photosynthesis, which emulates this natural process of ...

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 ...
