  2. Biological carbon fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_carbon_fixation

    Seven autotrophic carbon fixation pathways are known: [9] the Calvin Cycle, the Reverse Krebs Cycle, the reductive acetyl-CoA, the 3-HP bicycle, the 3-HP/4-HB cycle, the DC/4-HB cycles, and the reductive glycine pathway. Overview of the six known biological carbon fixation cycles. The organisms the Calvin cycle is found in are plants, algae ...

  3. Ethylene signaling pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_signaling_pathway

    Ethylene chemical structure. Ethylene signaling pathway is a signal transduction in plant cells to regulate important growth and developmental processes. [1] [2] Acting as a plant hormone, the gas ethylene is responsible for promoting the germination of seeds, ripening of fruits, the opening of flowers, the abscission (or shedding) of leaves and stress responses. [3]

  4. Wormhole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wormhole

    For a simplified notion of a wormhole, space can be visualized as a two-dimensional surface. In this case, a wormhole would appear as a hole in that surface, lead into a 3D tube (the inside surface of a cylinder), then re-emerge at another location on the 2D surface with a hole similar to the entrance. An actual wormhole would be analogous to ...

  5. Ethnobiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnobiology

    Logo for the Society of Ethnobiology. Ethnobiology is the multidisciplinary field of study of relationships among peoples, biota, and environments integrating many perspectives, from the social, biological, and medical sciences; along with application to conservation and sustainable development.

  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

    Plants and animals temporarily use carbon in their systems and then release it back into the air or surrounding medium. Generally, reservoirs are abiotic factors whereas exchange pools are biotic factors. Carbon is held for a relatively short time in plants and animals in comparison to coal deposits.

  8. C4 carbon fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C4_carbon_fixation

    C 4 plants have a competitive advantage over plants possessing the more common C 3 carbon fixation pathway under conditions of drought, high temperatures, and nitrogen or CO 2 limitation. When grown in the same environment, at 30 °C, C 3 grasses lose approximately 833 molecules of water per CO 2 molecule that is fixed, whereas C 4 grasses lose ...

  9. Environmental social science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_social_science

    Environmental social science is the broad, transdisciplinary study of interrelations between humans and the natural environment. Environmental social scientists work within and between the fields of anthropology, communication studies, economics, geography, history, political science, psychology, and sociology; and also in the interdisciplinary fields of environmental studies, human ecology ...
