Notes:

These cows originated in Dutch provinces of North Holland and Friesland, and Schleswig-Holstein in Northern Germany. They are known as Holsteins in North America and Friesians in UK and Ireland.

Notes:
Plants and photosynthetic organisms utilize this solar energy in fixing large amounts of CO2 while amounts consumed by human beings are relatively small representing only 10% of the energy converted during photosynthesis. The process of photosynthesis in plants involves a series of steps and reactions that use solar energy, water, and carbon dioxide to produce organic compounds and oxygen.
