16
Possible Projects 6. Studying plants for biophotovoltaics Roots under hypoxia Aquatics under CO 2 deprivation = every day! Some aquatics do CAM because CO 2 is low in water in the day
17
Possible Projects 6. Studying plants for biophotovoltaics Roots under hypoxia via mediator Aquatics under CO 2 deprivation Some aquatics do CAM because CO 2 is low in water in the day Perhaps others will transfer electrons to anodes during the day to dissipate excess energy
