here is a playlist that we believe embodies the feelings on photosynthesis and all of its earthy roots
“As carbon dioxide increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases, until a certain point when the enzymes function at their highest capacity.”
“As light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases until a certain point where the enzymes are working at their maximum rate.”
“As temperate increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases, until a certain point where the enzymes and other protiens in the photosynthesis reaction become denatured and can no longer function/function effectively,”
I think I know the answer to this question. Bulbasaur can’t be undergoing cutaneous gas exchange since its skin isn’t constantly moist. Also, Bulbasaur can use Solar Beam which means it must be using energy from the sun; Photosynthesis. It can survive at night too, which means it must be able to respire. THUS, it’s able to respire and photosynthesize.
Everywhere in a Flash: The Quantum Physics of Photosynthesis
By hitting single molecules with quadrillionth-of-a-second laser pulses, scientists have revealed the quantum physics underlying photosynthesis, the process used by plants and bacteria to capture light’s energy at efficiencies unapproached by human engineers.
The quantum wizardry appears to occur in each of a photosynthetic cell’s millions of antenna proteins. These route energy from electrons spinning in photon-sensitive molecules to nearby reaction-center proteins, which convert it to cell-driving charges.
Almost no energy is lost in between. That’s because it exists in multiple places at once, and always finds the shortest path.
