What If Humans Could Photosynthesize?
Season 3 Episode 36 | 4m 4s
We give a quick crash course on the chemistry of photosynthesis.
Ohh the sunny science! The sun shines a massive amount of energy onto the Earth’s surface every day. What if people could take a cue from plants and use sunlight to make their own food? From chloroplasts to carbon dioxide, Reactions creates a hypothetical photosynthetic human and gives a quick crash course on the chemistry of photosynthesis.
