That statement, though unscientific, reveals something else that is also amazing: Photosynthesis needs cell walls within which the process can safely take place, and the continuation of the process requires cell reproduction.
Kuigi see väide on ebateaduslik, toob see siiski esile fakti, mis on samuti imestamapanev: fotosünteesiks on vaja rakukesta, mille piires see protsess võiks turvaliselt toimuda, ning selle protsessi jätkumiseks peavad rakud paljunema.
