Among the fields of study to which he made significant contributions were: embryology [6]; morphology [7], or the form of living organisms and the relationships between their structures; natural history [8]; and behavior. Whitman served as director of several p...

A likely hypothesis is that the 2 reactions are carried on by different forms of chlorophyll a (10, 11). The enhancement effect in photosynthesis has been studied extensively in several laboratories (19) and it has been ...
