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.
Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and other eukaryotic organisms that conduct photosynthesis. The word chloroplast is derived from the Greek words chloros, which means green, and plast, which means form or entity. Chloroplasts are members of a class of organelles known as plastids.
