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.
Recognize that the routes by which the flow of energy and the recycling of matter through the ecosystem occur are called food chains. The ultimate source of energy for life on Earth is the sun. Solar energy is trapped during the process of photosynthesis and converted into a chemical form that we normally call food.
