Learn what respiration and photosynthesis are in plants. Find out how plants respire during the day and night in this Bitesize KS3 Biology guide.

Decreased photosynthesis could also hamper efforts to fight climate change. As plants photosynthesize, they draw carbon dioxide from the air into their tissues and store it in the form of sugars.

Photosynthesis can take place in nature even at extremely low light levels. This is the result of a study that investigated the development of Arctic microalgae at the end of the polar night. The ...

Photosynthesis breaks down. What he and other researchers have seen in natural tropical environments is a clear degradation in the efficiency of photosynthesis.

In the new study, published March 22 in the journal Nature, researchers used a new technique, known as ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy, to study how photosynthesis works at a timescale ...

For photosynthesis, one photon is all it takes. Only a single particle of light is required to spark the first steps of the biological process that converts light into chemical energy, scientists ...

Researchers at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have shed new light on the final step of photosynthesis. They observed in atomic detail how ...

Sunlight drives nearly all life on Earth, but much remains a mystery about the light-harvesting molecules on which biology depends in photosynthesis. In a new study published online June 14 in the ...

Photosynthesis In Animal Cells Achieved For The First Time Using Implanted Chloroplasts The researchers are now calling these plant-animal hybrids "planimal" cells. Benjamin Taub.
