Morning glory (also written as morning-glory) is the common name for over 1,000 species of flowering plants in the family Convolvulaceae, whose current taxonomy and systematics are in flux. Morning glory species belong to many genera, some of which are: 1  Calystegia.
Today, the average rate of energy capture by photosynthesis globally is approximately 130 terawatts, which is about three times the current power consumption of human civilization. Photosynthetic organisms also convert around 100â115 thousand million metric tonnes of carbon into biomass per year.
In photosynthesis, solar energy is converted to chemical energy. The chemical energy is stored in the form of glucose (sugar). Carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight are used to produce glucose, oxygen, and water.ix molecules of carbon dioxide (6CO 2) and twelve molecules of water (12H 2 O) are consumed in the process, while glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6), six molecules of oxygen (6O 2), and six molecules of water (6H 2 O) are produced. This equation may be simplified as: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light â C6H12O6 + 6O2.
