Sentences with phrase «products of photosynthesis»

* New GCSE 1 - 9 lesson on moving products of photosynthesis.

Glucose is one of the main products of photosynthesis.

Some organisms can take opportunistic advantage of a similar process, where they engulf an alga and use the products of its photosynthesis, but once the prey item dies (or is lost) the host returns to a free living state.

The reason is that oxygen, a by - product of photosynthesis, poisons the nitrogenase, Bhaya notes.

This state of affairs appears all the more absurd when you recall that every calorie we eat is ultimately the product of photosynthesis — a process based on making food energy from sunshine.

In the Calvin Cycle, NADPH helps fix carbon dioxide to form glucose — the end product of photosynthesis.

Not exact matches

This has to do with the photosynthesis on the basis of which our foods and fibers and forest products are produced.

For this reason methanol fuel cells will be used, where the combination of methanol and oxygen produces water and carbon dioxide as a waste product (note that the carbon footprint in this case is neutral in that the methanol will be produced by photosynthesis, removing CO2 from the atmosphere).

The microalgae measures approximately 10 microns (0.01 millimeters) and its known that when it stays in an organism, it performs photosynthesis and genetically mutates the host products, providing a significant amount of food.

Understanding how this signaling pathway functions would allow for development of strategies to protect crops against climatic change and to improve photosynthesis so as to generate biofuels and other valuable products.

The scientists are part of the Joint Center for Artificial Photosynthesis (JCAP), a DOE Energy Innovation Hub, whose goal is to convert CO2 into high - value chemical products like liquid fuels.

Project leader Robert Kourist explains: «If the enzymes are coupled to the photosynthesis of the cyanobacteria, expensive waste and by - products can be avoided and the biotechnological production of chemicals becomes easier, faster and cheaper.»

This is a schematic of a solar - powered electrolysis cell which converts carbon dioxide into hydrocarbon and oxygenate products with an efficiency far higher than natural photosynthesis.

Within the context of artificial photosynthesis, membranes are desired that facilitate the ion transport necessary to feed the electrochemical reactions while meeting various additional selectivity and permeability demands depending on the CO2 reduction products.

As both an «electrograph» (meaning it can undergo direct electron transfers from an electrode), and an «acetogen» (meaning it can direct nearly 90 - percent of its photosynthetic products towards acetic acid), M. thermoacetica serves as the ideal model organism for demonstrating the capabilities of this hybrid artificial photosynthesis system.

Artificial versions of photosynthesis are being explored for the clean, green and sustainable production of chemical products now made from petroleum, primarily fuels and plastics.

Although photosynthesis is an effective means of producing food, wood products, and carbon stored in vegetation, it is an inefficient means of converting the energy in the sun's rays into a form of non-food energy useable by people.

While it takes anywhere from months to decades for plants to sequester carbon through photosynthesis, combustion and release of carbon's combustion product, carbon dioxide, happens in seconds.

Instead of harnessing the sun's energy to convert carbon dioxide into plant food, artificial photosynthesis seeks to use the same starting ingredients to produce chemical precursors commonly used in synthetic products as well as fuels like ethanol.

-- it's not a pollutant, it's a product of every living creature's breathing, it's the product of all plant respiration, it is essential for plant life and photosynthesis, it's a product of all industrial burning, it's a product of driving — I mean, if you ever wanted a leverage point to control everything from exhalation to driving, this would be a dream.

A potentially game - changing breakthrough in artificial photosynthesis has been achieved with the development of a system that can capture carbon dioxide emissions before they are vented into the atmosphere and then, powered by solar energy, convert that carbon dioxide into valuable chemical products, including biodegradable plastics, pharmaceutical drugs and even liquid fuels.
