Zoom In On a Leaf

Turn on CC

..."The worm like thing is high energy Adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP for short) and the spinning mushroom thingy is ATP synthase. The green stacks thingy is the Thylakoid membrane which contains Electron transport chain for pumping protons from the stroma into the thylakoid space."...

Science is stunning isn't it?

Thanks for the trip through a leaf's inner workings.

It's an animation based on reality with omission of some things for clarification making it easier to understand the mechanisms at work inside a leaf...
