Chloroplasts in animal cells? Bro had to fall off in order to help the mankind advance. Truly a great sacrifice.

If humans can gain energy directly from sunlight like plants, that means there won't be a shortage of food. Will the world become more peaceful? Will this change the balance in our atmosphere 🤔?

[@Its1paradox]

It has potential help with the food shortage, but not because animals would be able to photosynthesis to get all the energy that they need. Instead it could provide the ability to generate artificial meat in places where it is not possible to domesticate animals, due to several reasons. Afterall raising animals for meat leaves a significant impact on the environment and can be very costly for earth. But when it comes to humans, our body's demand for glucose is much higher than photosynthesis can accommodate. Associate professor Lindsay Turnbull of the University of Oxford determined that if the surface area of an adult woman contained chlorophyll like a leaf, it would produce only 1% of the daily energy requirements for the person to survive. To live by photosynthesis alone, the woman would need a green body with the surface the size of a tennis court. Despite all that it does open up lots of possibilities for future research.

It can be useful on other planets
