Cerebellar stroke is a common cause of a vascular vestibular syndrome. Although vertigo ascribed to cerebellar stroke is usually associated with other neurological symptoms or signs, it may mimic acute peripheral vestibulopathy (APV), so called pseudo-APV.
Phytoplankton receive energy through photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process of making glucose using sunlight. Carbon dioxide, sunlight, and water combine, producing glucose sugars that the being can use for energy. Zooplankton however feed off phytoplankton and decaying matter. They are known as detrivores.
A Primer on Photosynthesis and the Functioning of Cells Photosynthesis Photosynthesis is the process by which organisms that contain the pigment chlorophyll convert light energy into chemical energy which can be stored in the molecular bonds of organic molecules (e.g., sugars). Photosynthesis powers almost all trophic chains and food webs on the Earth.
