Catabolic – this type of pathway releases energy and is used to break down large molecules into smaller ones (degradation). An example of an anabolic reaction is photosynthesis, ...

C3 vs. C4 Photosynthesis Now and then, RuBP will affix itself to oxygen instead of carbon dioxide in a process known as photorespiration. This wasteful pathway results in the consumption—not ...

Photosynthesis is a chemical process by which plants, some bacteria, and algae convert energy derived from sunlight to chemical energy. This is an important process for biological life on earth ...

Unlike us, plants don't need pantries full of food to stay alive; the Sun is their pantry. But, like us, they require fairly ...

The basis of all life on Earth is photosynthesis. So, what happens if it is disrupted? Today, advanced measurement tools can reveal how climate change is affecting plants' ability to process the ...

The key is photosynthesis. How does a plant turn sunlight into energy? Simply put, photosynthesis is the process by which a plant converts sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into glucose (a form of ...
