2. PI curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PI_Curve

   The PI (or photosynthesis-irradiance) curve is a graphical representation of the empirical relationship between solar irradiance and photosynthesis. A derivation of the Michaelis–Menten curve, it shows the generally positive correlation between light intensity and photosynthetic rate. It is a plot of photosynthetic rate as a function of light ...

3. Photosynthesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

   The average rate of energy captured by global photosynthesis is approximately 130 terawatts, [6] [7] [8] which is about eight times the total power consumption of human civilization. [9] Photosynthetic organisms also convert around 100–115 billion tons (91–104 Pg petagrams , or billions of metric tons), of carbon into biomass per year.

4. Calvin cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_cycle

   2 O → glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) + 6 NADP + + 9 ADP + 8 P i (P i = inorganic phosphate) Hexose (six-carbon) sugars are not products of the Calvin cycle. Although many texts list a product of photosynthesis as C 6 H 12 O 6, this is mainly for convenience to match the equation of aerobic respiration, where six-carbon sugars are oxidized ...

5. Photosynthetic efficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_efficiency

   Photosynthesis is the only process that allows the conversion of atmospheric carbon (CO2) to organic (solid) carbon, and this process plays an essential role in climate models. This lead researchers to study the sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (i.e., chlorophyll fluorescence that uses the Sun as illumination source; the glow of a plant) as ...

6. C3 carbon fixation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C3_carbon_fixation

   Calvin–Benson cycle. C 3 carbon fixation is the most common of three metabolic pathways for carbon fixation in photosynthesis, the other two being C 4 and CAM.This process converts carbon dioxide and ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP, a 5-carbon sugar) into two molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate through the following reaction:

7. Biogeochemical cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biogeochemical_cycle

   The equation describing the rate of change of content in a reservoir is d M d t = Q − S = Q − M τ . {\displaystyle {\frac {dM}{dt}}=Q-S=Q-{\frac {M}{\tau }}.} When two or more reservoirs are connected, the material can be regarded as cycling between the reservoirs, and there can be predictable patterns to the cyclic flow.

   The Baseball Hall of Fame ballot is being mailed to 400 members of the Baseball Writers Association of America this week, and that ballot includes 14 candidates appearing for the very first time.

9. Autotroph - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autotroph

   Photosynthesis is the main means by which plants, algae and many bacteria produce organic compounds and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water (green arrow). An autotroph is an organism that can convert abiotic sources of energy into energy stored in organic compounds , which can be used by other organisms .
