A first-of-its-kind achievement has implanted photosynthesizing cells in animal cells to make “planimals.” This feat could be ...
A research team in China has held atoms in a state of quantum superposition for 23 minutes, suggesting tantalizing new ...
The ability of plants to convert sunlight into food is an enviable superpower. Now, researchers have shown they can get ...
Scientists in Japan have found a way to create solar-powered tissues, which may lead to breakthroughs in growing organs and ...
Energy-making chloroplasts from algae have been inserted into hamster cells, enabling the cells to photosynthesize light, ...
Recent research from Japan has demonstrated that chloroplasts from algae can be integrated into hamster cells, allowing these ...
After decades of failed attempts, scientists have finally succeeded in coaxing animal cells into photosynthesizing. So far, the researchers have only managed to achieve the feat in cultured cells – ...
Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...
Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed prokaryotes that once lived as independent organisms. At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed ...
