Photosynthesis Definition and 66 Threads

It's the question for my science fair report.

Biology Help! Ok, my biology teacher's test is next wednesday for me. This test is on Photosynthesis ordering, but I didn't get it all down (and she isn't going to tell me -_- she said before)... The list of words that I need to reorder is as follows: - 5C - 6C - ATP - electron -...

Is photosynthesis possible in humans?

I am an electrical engineer currently studying alternative energy, and I realize this would be a very difficult task but I would like some feedback on whether this study has been attempted or if people are afraid to attack it. When trying to think of how to purify the air i first turned to...

I just want to know if the info that I am retaining is right. The reactants of photosynthesis is 6H20 + 6CO2 which would be six molecules of water and six molecules of carbon dioxide. The product - would be C6H12O6 + 6O2 which would be one molecule of sugar plus six molecules of O2...

Here is the situation. I know what Fluorescence quenching is. But what is its utility in the study of artificial photosynthesis ? A simple explanation connectin the two will do fine

Would anyone happen to know where I could find the standard Rf values (for Chlorophyll a, Chlorophyll b, Xanthophyll, and Carotene) if varsol is the solvent? I'm trying to identify those plant pigments via Paper Chromatography, and I'd like to compare my results to the standards. The problem is...

Hey everyone, We did an experiment a while back to test the affect of increased concentrations of chloroplast on photosynthetic activity. It seemed intuitive to think that increased chloroplast concentration would yeild increased photosynthetic activity. To measure photosynthetic activty we...

I've been trying to google-out some things about this issue, but - nevertheless I ask here because this issue seems very interesting: Is there a way to PURELY ELECTRONICALY (i.e. it doesn't use any NON-REUSABLE chemicals in process that you must replace in order for apparature to function)...

Photosynthesis - urgent help! I am doing an experiment where there are two plants in test tubes in water which contains phenol red. The experiment is to find out if plants absorb carbon. What are the independent, dependent and control variables?

FOr the light dependent reaction, In the textbook it says that the H+ concentration gradient across the thylakoid membrane is maintained by: 1) photolysis 2) transport of electrons from photosystem II along carriers 3) formation of NADPH. I can understand 1) and 3), but I have no idea...

You know how oxygen is released as a byproduct of photosynthesis by plants, how does this affect the amount of oxygen in the air in the winter season in the areas when all plants are frozen ?

Please help me fill this gaps ASAP!Photosynthesis question The carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is ____ %(1).The carbon dioxide passes into the leaf via the _______ (2) and diffuses through the system of ____________(3).The carbon dioxide then dissolves in the_______(4)on the surface of the...

Well Dr. Kaku?

will the plant's respiration rate increasing while the plant is taking photosynthesis?

Does anyone know how many ATP molecules are used in the process of photosynthesis? I think with aerobic respiration 2 are used, but I could be wrong.
