Researchers present an alternative to the long-held “hard steps” theory to explain the evolution of complex life, suggesting ...
Under the sea ice during the Arctic’s pitch-black polar night, cells power photosynthesis on the lowest light levels ever observed in nature. Most of life’s engines run on sunlight. Photons filter ...
Without photosynthesis there would be no oxygen in our atmosphere and life as we know it would not exist. It happens inside the chloroplasts, which are found in leaf cells and other green parts of ...
Most orchid species have a symbiotic relationship with the natural fungi found in their roots. The plants provide the fungi ...
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 ...
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 ...
The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is rising rapidly, with numerous negative consequences for the climate. However, ...
