​@@laierr True, but compared to factories it still is a rather cack handed way to store energy; why not use that excess light energy to shove electrons into a storage medium directly into an electron deficient system? Unless the ultimate ''goal'' is to increase entropy within the whole system as quickly as possible, into as many parts of it as possible; while keeping the entropy dumpsters going as long as possible.

Best hilariously ironic thing in all of molecular biology is the fact that the first protein electrons enters during photosynthesis is called “photosystem 2” and the second protein the electrons enter is called “photosystem 1” This hilarious naming mixup was caused because “photosystem 1” was discovered and named before “photosystem 2” was. So the name was already established and couldn’t be changed. Always found this little factoid funny.

Came in to learn about photosynthesis, left with the best explanation of the second law of thermodynamics I've come across. Still left with a great understanding of photosynthesis

"Non-producer" is not quite right. While we don't do so internally, we have developed external processes to harness the energy of the sun that are around 10x more efficient then photosynthesis (solar panels). We even have processes to extract energy from rocks stored by distant long dead stars other then our sun (nuclear power). So as an organism, we aren't *quite* so unproductive when taken as a whole.

I didn't expect this amount of details. Very interesting video!

Hold on a second...you're telling me...plants use an exploit in Quantum mechanics or something? This channel is fucking amazing. You've earned yourself a sub, this is my 5th video and I can't stop watching and I flunked Highschool Chemistry hard dude.

Most of this video went way past my head. I love learning… I yearn to know about everything and I don’t understand why. I did not receive a formal education. Barely went to elementary school, then got my GED in my mid 20s. I’m so pissed that I didn’t have a proper opportunity to learn about the things that excite me, similar to the way those electrons were excited by photons. I am a gypsy and school is not encouraged with my people. Maybe... just maybe, I could’ve made something of my life. If anyone is reading this that is undecided, learn as much as you can but, remember that without a degree, it’s all for not.

I just discovered your channel and I’m in love haha, the animations are just perfect, the way I literally closed my eyes or zoned out for minutes while reading my science textbooks just to imagine all the diagrams in movement and all this processes and you’ve animated them just like I imagined them! I hope you get recommended more and more, this is the best science channel ever!

I’m sure this has been said many times before, but the visuals in these videos are absolutely spot-on. They’re both brilliantly explanatory and beautifully made. Thank you ❤

You are a master at making compelling 3D visual explanations of complex subjects dude. Best of luck with this channel and your research :) i've subbed already

Thank you for your work! You share fabulous contents, and your ability to explain and communicate is unreal! Thank you

Absolutely amazing work, so deep and clear narrative that does not underestimate viewer, you really deserve 100x subs & views.. I can't imagine how much work you must do to create even single part on one video!

I agree with everyone. Educational videos are the BEST on KZread. And I like your style, man.

I hope this channel blows up one day. And I'll be happy to be here for that ride.

There's actually a TedEd video about the Calvin Cycle which does a great job at explaining how the regeneration of RuBP works. Granted, it's a little cartoonish, and you don't get proper chemical structures, but the explanation itself is pretty clever.

Awesome video, by far the one of the most important reactions on earth.

Amazing! ...Both your video and photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis really is quite fascinating, it's like life figured out a cheat code for energy.

I love this channel, because it connects what we learn quite abstractly (Physics & Chemistry) with the real world. Always had an interest how the real world and quantum world work together

One of the best explanantions out there.

Omg yes I am going to binge watch all of your videos

Been watching your videos for some time. But only now I actually wondered how many views and subscribers you have. And oh my god was I surprised! I couldn't believe my eyes! I like education channels like yours, but only your channel managed to properly explain relativity and gravitation to me! That was a huge revelation! And after that seeing you with only 59k subs makes me feel really sad! I hope the time will soon come for your channel to blow up with views and subs, because you somehow manage to explain everything in a way that leaves no question based on poor understanding! All the best to you! Keep doing that good stuff!

This is so crazy to think about early cellular life just happened to stumble across this process in only a couple million years after they were created

Am I the only one who sees a similarity between photosynthesis and the firing of neurons or other nerve tissue? I mean, even the shape of the pigment molecules reminded me of the shape of a neuron.
