light harvesting complex

n=1


a: light harvesting complex ~
b: blade of a windmill

What:

"Energy Conversion is what it's all about. Windmills convert wind energy to mechanical energy. This is done when wind pushes on the windmill blade and causes it to turn. The light harvesting complex converts a photon into a high energy electron. The energy from this high energy electron is used to create high energy molecules, ATP and NADPH that are ultimately used to fix carbon into glucose.
