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 ...

Scientists have visualised plant respiration in real time, capturing stomata opening and closing. This breakthrough offers ...

Montana State University has long been a hub for research on the many unique features of nearby Yellowstone National Park, and now a doctoral student in one of the university's microbiology ...

Net photosynthesis, dark respiration, and growth of Rumex patientia L. exposed to a ultraviolet irradiance (288-315 nanometers) simulating a 0.18 atm·cm stratospheric ozone column were determined. The ...

The sugar can be broken down in plant cells by the process of respiration to generate ATP. The chemical energy released by respiration can be used by the plant for cellular activities such as protein ...
