photosensitizers Norberto/Alvaro

Artificial photosynthesis Applications 

by Alvaro, norberto

   Photosensitizers are molecules that can be activated by light in order to generate ROS that can damage cell structures from microorganisms or from diseased mammalian cells leading to death. Ideally, photosensitizers should be relatively easy to synthesis as a single pure compound, have low levels of cytotoxicity in the dark, and have no physiological side effects (such as hypotension or hypersensitivity). Moreover, photosensitizers that are activated by longer wavelengths of light, especially in the red and far red, can be of red light into tissues is higher and there is less skin photosensitivity in this region of the spectrum.

  The main benefit of artificial photosynthesisi is to produce a hydrogen fuel that will be energy efficient and carbon neutral. It will be a renewable source of energy which can be used for transportation. It will not add any green house gasses into the atmosphere. 

  Artificial photosynthesis aims to split water in oceans, and possibly even rivers, into its hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon components using sunlight. Hydrogen produced via AP is readily usable in the fuel cells of electric cars being manufactured right now, and it can also be used to store solar energy.

River and Streams by Yuridia and Briana

River and Stream Ecosystem in this ecosystem we are going to talk about river and stem ecosystem.it will talk about all sorts of plants and animals Animals : Some of the animals that live in the river or streams are  turtles, ducks, otters, crocodiles, catfish, drag on fly and crabs can be found in  rivers  all around the world, and the Amazon river is even home to the rare and pink, freshwater dolphin. an d for your information we are talking about all rivers and streams   climate: Rivers change their course as they travel and carve a path through the land.  The temperatures range from 65 °F to 75 °F in the summer and 35 °F to 45 °F in the winter. plants: Rivers and streams  are fresh water and hold up to 3 percent of the Earth's fresh water. Freshwater  plants  include algae, bulrushes and cattails, and freshwater animals include crayfish, fish and eels. location: Rivers /  Streams : A...

Coral Reef by Gerardo and Elija

                      LOCATION  Coral reefs, need warm shallow waters to form.They form neared the equator near the coastlines and around islands throughout the world. A significant portion of the worlds coral reef are located in southwest Asia and near Australia.                      CLIMATE Coral reefs  mainly form in the tropics since they favor temperatures between 70- 80 degrees Fahrenheit, needs   sunlight since individual polyps.  which contribute to the growth of  corals , contain symbiotic algae.                                       ANIMALS Sharks, groupers, clown fish, eels, parrot fish, snapper, and scorpion fish), jellyfish, anemones, sea stars (including the destructive Crown of Thorns), crustaceans (like crabs, shrimp, puffer fish...
