Plants and trees may seem pretty passive, but behind the scenes, their cells are working hard to put on a magic show. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we’ll explore how the processes of ...

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 ...

Plants and animals have many similarities when it comes to what they need to survive. Both need water and air. We often think of animals using oxygen and glucose for cellular respiration and producing ...

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 ...

Flux measurements suggest that boreal forests can be either sources or sinks for atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2; refs 3, 4), and that there is considerable interannual variability in this respect ...
