Food Chain Laser Light
895 wordsLIGHT: A FUNDAMENTAL FORCE IN OUR WORLD If asked what light is, one could say that it's one of the most basic elements of our world and our universe as we perceive it. It is through sight that we receive 90 % of our information. It is through the use of telescopes aiding the naked eye that we are aware of the heavenly bodies around us. It is through light that the energy from the sun is transferred to us. The sun's energy supports the food chain; plants use it to turn water and CO 2 into energy ...

Greenhouse Gases Greenhouse Effect
832 wordsWhen a person starts their car or does a very small and simple thing the last thing that they are thinking of are the consequences it has to the atmosphere. Because of the continuous changing of the society, the earth has to get used to several different problems. Even though the atmosphere is known to be good because it protects us from the deadly radiation from the sun, it also takes that same heat and engulfs the earth in it. The greenhouse effect refers to the light energy that is trapped by...

Carbon Dioxide Hydrogen Ions
1,424 wordsPhotosynthesis is the process by which organisms that contain the pigment chlorophyll convert light energy into chemical energy which can be stored in the molecular bonds of organic molecules. Photosynthesis powers almost all trophic chains and food webs on the Earth. The net process of photosynthesis is described by the following equation: 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + Light Energy = C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 This equation simply means that carbon dioxide from the air and water combine in the presence of sunli...

Solid State Lasers Beam Of Light
1,749 wordsL A S E R S Did you know that some laser beams are small enough and powerful enough to drill two hundred holes on a spot as tiny as the head of a pin? The first major advancement in laser development came in 1954. This was the year that Charles H. Townes, an American physicist, created a device that amplified microwaves. This device was actually called a maser at first, which was short for Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation Masers. It produced microwaves of just one freq...

Black And White Electrical Impulses
2,017 wordsOverview Digital cameras capture images electronically and convert them into digital data that can be stored and manipulated by a computer. Like conventional cameras, digital cameras have a lens, aperture, and shutter, but they dont use film. When light passes through the lens it is focused on a photo-sensitive electronic chip called a charged coupling device (CCD). The CCD converts light impulses into electrical impulses (also called analog signal forms). The signals are fed into a microprocess...

Ribosomal Rna Hydrogen Ions
1,285 wordsOrigins of mitochondria and chloroplast Both mitochondria and chloroplast have an inner and outer membrane, each a phospholipid bilayer with a unique collection of embedded proteins. The inner membrane of the mitochondria is convoluted, with infolding's called crystal which gives it a greater surface are to enhance productivity of cellular respiration, it also encloses the mitochondrial matrix, and contains built in enzymes that make ATP. The inner membrane of the chloroplast encloses the grand ...

Amount Of Light Chemical Energy
408 wordsPhotosynthesis is the process by which plant cells, algae, and some bacteria, capture light energy and change it to chemical energy. Almost all of the world? s energy is provided through photosynthesis. The equation for photosynthesis is CO 2 + 2 H 2 A + light energy> (CA. Photosynthesis is in two stages: a series of reactions that need light and certain temperatures and a series of reactions that don? t need light but need certain temperatures. The rate of the light reaction, can be sped up by ...

Rate Of Reaction Amount Of Water
1,531 wordsPhotosynthesis is a very important process in nature. It is the production of energy in the form of glucose involving water from the soil, carbon dioxide from the air and light energy. It takes place in all green plants, which use the green chlorophyll, held in chloroplasts in the leaves, to trap light. The main site of photosynthesis is the palisade mesophyll cells in the leaf of a plant. It is these cells that contain the green chloroplasts and are very well adapted to their task. They are nea...
