In a small manganese oxide cluster, teams from HZB and HU Berlin have discovered a particularly exciting compound: two high-spin manganese centers in two very different oxidation states. This complex ...

Photosynthesis comprises two steps or "modules." First of all, in the so-called light-driven reaction ... The so-called ...

Plants harness quantum physics to capture solar energy with near-perfect efficiency. Scientists are now exploring how to ...

During the light, provided the rate of photosynthesis is sufficiently high, plants, give out oxygen. The overall reaction for photosynthesis as given above is a simplification. Photosynthesis ...

This process, called photosynthesis, is essential to the global carbon cycle and organisms that conduct photosynthesis represent the lowest level in most food chains (Figure 1). Most living things ...

This stage is so-called because it depends on light being available. The reactions of this stage ... are both transferred to the second stage of photosynthesis. Some of the oxygen produced can ...

Photosynthesis is ... dioxide and typically water, using light as an energy source. The process can be broken down into two stages - the light and dark reactions. NADPH and ATP generated during ...
