WITHIN A PLANT It is now 7:15 in the evening. Here is Worker No. 55, clad in his green uniform, preparing to commence his duties at the factory. He is stationed at Workshop 1001 within the Plant. Each workshop houses between 20 to 100 workers who diligently perform their tasks. Throughout the day, they absorb sunlight and CO2. Simultaneously, workers from the Root system transport water upwards through the Stem to the Leaf. In the Leaf, these workers synthesize water, CO2, and sunlight. Their primary product is crucial for the plant's growth: sugar. Additionally, they produce oxygen, although the plant itself requires minimal amounts. This oxygen, however, holds great significance for animals and humans, essential for their respiration. The workers exert themselves tirelessly. As dusk approaches, they prepare to rest. Plants, numbering in the millions across the Earth, contribute far beyond sustenance and oxygen. Their absence would drastically alter the natural world as we know it.
在植物工厂内部 现在是晚上七点一刻。这是55号工人,穿着绿色制服,准备在工厂开始工作了。 他工作在植物的1001号车间。每个车间有20到100名工人,他们认真地执行各自的任务。白天,他们吸收阳光和二氧化碳。同时,来自根部的工人通过茎向叶子输送水分。 在叶子中,这些工人将水分、二氧化碳和阳光合成。他们主要生产的产品对植物的生长至关重要:糖。此外,他们还产生氧气,尽管植物本身需要的量很少。然而,这氧气对动物和人类至关重要,是呼吸过程中不可或缺的。 工人们辛勤工作。随着黑夜的临近,他们开始休息。 地球上有数百万种植物。它们的贡献远不止食物和氧气。没有植物,自然界将会截然不同。 |
