Does the formamide in EVA foam mats pose a health risk? The French researchers tested three different brands of foam puzzle mats. The study found that any exposure to formamide came almost exclusively through inhalation. Exposure through ingestion (whether through suction, chewing, or swalling a piece) was negligible.
Chemiosmosis is one of the processes by which ATP is synthesized. In eukaryotes, it takes place in the mitochondria during cellular respiration and in the chloroplasts during photosynthesis. In prokaryotes, it occurs in the cell membrane.
Specialized cell-to-cell communication pathways known as plasmodesmata, pores in the primary cell wall through which the plasmalemma and endoplasmic reticulum of adjacent cells are continuous. Plastids, the most notable being the chloroplast, which contains chlorophyll, a green-colored pigment that absorbs sunlight, and allows the plant to make its own food in the process known as photosynthesis.
