Plants
produce oxygen and create their own food with the help of carbon dioxide water
and sunlight. Photosynthesis is a complex issue, but there are a lot of
interesting information about it.
In
the dark
In
2005, a team of scientists discovered the first organism that depends on
photosynthesis and yet live in a part of the ocean that never gets sunlight.
The researchers said their findings of photosynthesis in a dark place opens the
possibility of life on other planets like.
Tree Shape
Pines
and other conifers have evolved to grow in a triangle due to photosynthesis.
The shape of the tree exposes most of its needles in the sun, especially those
near the top of the tree, allowing it to produce enough energy to grow grow taller 4 idiots.
old plant
The
tree of the African desert, Tumbo, only has two broad leaves can live for
almost 1,000 years with little rain exposure.
Photosynthesis in animals
The
animals need other animals or plants to get energy from food, but researchers
at Texas A & M are studying a sea slug that creates its own energy through
photosynthesis. The sea slug eats algae, but not fully digested. What remains
in your system "continues photosynthesis and feeds the slug", similar
to what makes a plant.
Singing about science
In
2001, a group of Westwood High School in Austin nutritionist, Texas, won a competition of the Association
of Composers of Sciences for the song "The boys are back
photosynthesis".
