I’ve seen things you wouldn’t believe, like an atom about to photosynthesize
Paper details previously unknown step in process of converting light energy to chemical energy
Photosynthesis – the process by which plants and some other organisms convert sunlight to food – is complex, and scientists don’t fully understand how it works. But a team of researchers led by the US Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory reckon they’re closer to solving the mystery – they captured an image of the atoms inside cyanobacteria undergoing photosynthesis just as the tiny organism released oxygen.…
