Discusses how various organelles of a cell interact to form a working whole, using the chloroplast of plant cells to illustrate the process. Shows methods for isolating metabolically active chloroplasts from...
Outlines the development of life on earth, discusses the synthetic process with its demand for energy as well as raw materials, chloroplast structure, the light reaction, the ‘dark’ reaction, and...
Traces the history of aerobiosis, then discusses mitochondrion structure, NADH production with an overview of the Krebs cycle, the electron transfer chain, ATP synthesis and chloroplasts as the site of...
Discusses the role of mitochondria in the production of ATP by the cell and shows how an oxygen electrode can be used to follow the uptake of oxygen by isolated mitochondria.
Uses computer animation to show the process of photosynthesis at the molecular level. In six 10-minute segments: Seeing the Light (discoveries of Joseph Priestly, Jan Ingenhousz Jean Senebier); Absorbing the...
Demonstrates how to measure the rate of photosynthesis in a disc of leaf and a suspension of chloroplasts using an oxygen electrode. Shows two different types of oxygen electrode and oxygen output is...
Examines the flow of energy throughout the world of living things. In six 10-minute segments: The Concept of Energy Flow, Photosynthesis; energy Flow in the Ecosystem; Energy Flow at the Cellular Level;...
Asks if there is a way of capturing and storing the sun’s energy as useful chemical energy. In the photochemistry laboratories at the Royal Institution Sir George Porter outlines the aim - to find a way to...
Examines in details the adaptations found in different plants for the carbon-fixing step of photosynthesis and discusses the possibilities of breeding the ingenious devices of some tropical plants into our...
Professor Sir George Porter, Director of the Royal Institution, explains the overall ‘synthetic’ side of photosynthesis, and then concentrates on the primary photochemistry, involving chlorophyll. The...
