Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities. This chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules, such as sugars, which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water â hence the name photosynthesis, from the Greek Ïá¿¶Ï, phÅs, light, and ÏÏÎ½Î¸ÎµÏÎ¹Ï, synthesis, putting together. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants ...
Chief cells of the stomach secrete the digestive enzymes (pepsins) of the stomach and have the typical appearance of serous-secretory epithelial cells. Secretory vesicles (containing pepsinogen) are clearly visible in the apical cytoplasm of chief cells.
Many varieties of epithelial cells are present across the body. However, the urinary tract is composed of three types of epithelial cells, i.e. squamous, renal tubular, and transitional cells. The squamous epithelial cells are generally located in the vagina, the outer areas of the urethra and on the skin.
