1·Why does chlorophyll need protection when it is the natural world's supreme light absorber?
为什么叶绿素是自然界最高等的光吸收体,却需要保护?
2·It's colder there, they're more stressed, their chlorophyll is more sensitive and it needs more sunblock.
那里更冷,它们受到更大压力,它们的叶绿素更敏感,并且需要更多的避光措施。
3·As chlorophyll is depleted, other colours that have been dominated by it throughout the summer begin to be revealed.
当叶绿素耗尽时,在整个夏季被它主导的其他颜色开始显现。
4·The slugs can manufacture chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants that captures energy from sunlight, and hold these genes within their body.
蛞蝓可以制造叶绿素——让植物从太阳光获取能量的绿色色素——并把这些基因保留在他们体内。
5·Chlorophyll, although exquisitely evolved to capture the energy of sunlight, can sometimes be overwhelmed by it, especially in situations of drought, low temperatures, or nutrient deficiency.
叶绿素虽然已经进化得极为精巧,能捕捉阳光中的能量,但有时也会应接不暇,特别是在干旱、低温或缺乏营养的情况下。
