Theta Chi is dedicated to creating an environment of truth, temperance and tolerance, enabling gentlemen of the fraternity to assume leadership positions, prosper academically and form brotherhood bonds. Beyond being a home away from home, we strive toward contributing to the campus and community.
Carbon is a component of all organic molecules, many of which are essential for life. The ultimate source of all organic molecules is primary production, in which photosynthetic organisms take in carbon dioxide gas (or bicarbonate - CO2's water-dissolved form) and, using sunlight as an energy source, convert it into glucose.
The ultimate source of all energy on earth is light from the sun. Plants use that energy, along with carbon dioxide from the air and nitrates from the soil, to create sugars and lipids (fats) as well as amino acids (ingredients for DNA) through the process of photosynthesis.
