Hello,
Related to a thought of why animals don't use photosynthesis (typical answer is that photosynthesis would provide only marginal energy compared to the needs of an animal), I am interested in how much energy does a plant produce using photosynthesis?
Any example or estimates is good to know, for example mediterranean climate and sun angle, clear day, calories per average leave per hour or per hour for m2 of leaves; or whatever else example anyone might have data for.
