The Role of Light in Energy Production and Evolution
The availability of light has been critical in the evolution of living organisms as it is used to catalyze reactions for life, especially in the initial input of energy necessary for these reactions using enzymes that require light. Light has been a key aspect in the outsourcing of energy production for survival.
