A photosystem is a protein-pigment complex found in the thylakoid membranes of plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, essential for photosynthesis. It captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy. Each photosystem consists of two main parts: the antenna complex, which gathers light energy, and the reaction center, where photochemistry occurs. […]
The Calvin Cycle, also known as the Calvin-Benson cycle, is a series of biochemical reactions that occur in the stroma of chloroplasts during photosynthesis. It uses carbon dioxide, ATP, and NADPH to produce glucose and other carbohydrates. The cycle begins with the enzyme RuBisCO fixing carbon dioxide to ribulose bisphosphate […]
A molecular clock is a method used in evolutionary biology to estimate the timing of evolutionary events. It assumes that genetic mutations accumulate at a relatively constant rate over time. By comparing DNA, RNA, or protein sequences between different species, scientists can determine the number of mutations and infer the […]
