Examples of photosynthesis in the following topics:
-
- Mass spectrometry has been used to study the ratio of carbon isotopes in various plants to understand the mechanisms of photosynthesis.
- Mass spectrometry has been used to study the ratio of isotopes in various plants to understand the mechanisms of photosynthesis.
- Stable carbon isotopes in carbon dioxide are utilized differentially by plants during photosynthesis.
- Describe the use of radioactive isotopes in the study of photosynthesis
-
- They originate as products of photosynthesis, an endothermic reductive condensation of carbon dioxide requiring light energy and the pigment chlorophyll.
-
- The complex organic compounds found in living organisms on this planet originate from photosynthesis, an endothermic reductive condensation of carbon dioxide requiring light energy and the pigment chlorophyll.
- The products of photosynthesis are a class of compounds called carbohydrates, the most common and important of which is glucose (C6H12O6).
-
- Elemental oxygen (O2) is produced by cyanobacteria, algae, and plants through the process of photosynthesis, and is used in cellular respiration by most living organisms on earth.
-
- Carbon dioxide produced in this way diffuses in the atmosphere, is dissolved in the ocean, and is incorporated by plants via photosynthesis.
-
- Photosynthesis (equation 2) is an important example of an endothermic process.
-
- Concentrations of the gas tend to fall during the northern spring and summer as plants consume the gas (during the process of photosynthesis), and rise during autumn and winter as plants go dormant, decay, or die.
