Marijuana Seeds and Photosynthesis
Marijuana, like all green plants, manufacturers its food through the process photosynthesis.
Unlike animals, which depend on pre-formed food for survival, plants can use energy from light to form food (carbohydrates) from simple inorganic molecules absorbed from the air and soil.
Marijuana seeds Plants absorb light energy through pigments that are concentrated in the leaf cells.
These pigments are also found in most of the above ground parts of the marijuana plant. The most abundant pigment is chlorophyll, which gives the marijuana seeds plant their green colour.
The energy absorbed is stored in chemical compounds such as ATP and NADPH(ATP, adenosine-triphosphate; NADPH2, nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotide-phosphate.)
These are storage/transfer compounds that function to transfer energy and matter in the living system.
ATP transfers energy that fuels the reactions for the making of carbohydrates as well as most other metabolic functions.
NADPH2 transfers electrons, usually as hydrogen, for the synthesis of carbohydrates as well as other compounds.
The raw material for the synthesis of carbohydrates (CH2O)n comes from carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
Carbon dioxide is absorbed primarily from the air, but can also be absorbed from the soil and secondarily from the air.
