We often think of animals using oxygen and glucose for cellular respiration and producing carbon dioxide. Similarly, we might think of plants using carbon dioxide and sunlight for photosynthesis and ...

With artificial photosynthesis, humankind could utilize solar energy to bind carbon dioxide and produce hydrogen. Chemists have taken this one step further: They have synthesized a stack of dyes ...

A new Yale study aims to settle a longstanding question about photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into fuel, with oxygen as a byproduct. For 40 years, scientists have ...

Later, this same "distracted" child explained photosynthesis by connecting all ... A new study offers insight into how this process works. Children's attention and learning might operate ...

Now, a new study suggests microplastics are hindering plants’ ability to generate energy through photosynthesis, with ...

With artificial photosynthesis, mankind could utilize solar energy to bind carbon dioxide and produce hydrogen. Chemists from Würzburg and Seoul have taken this one step further: They have ...

Crops around the world—including corn, wheat and rice—might suffer from decreased yields as a result of microplastics interfering with photosynthesis, according to a new study. Andy Sacks via ...
