Doesn't someone out there have a better picture of an opisthobranch than this guy? Some of them are so beautiful. -Safay 02:37, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chloroplast Ingestion - Genetic Engineering

I found this while doing an search on a whim for animals that use chlorophyll for energy. http://www.plantphysiol.org/cgi/content/full/123/1/29

Apparently some sea slugs eat algae and preserve the chloroplasts and even use them for power.

Does anyone know of any other organism besides plants, algae and bacteria that use photosynthesis. Or about any research into genetically engineering an animal to produce chloroplasts as an alternative energy source for the organism? Or point me towards articles or discussion that show why this is hard or impossible or crazy.

Please contact me on my user talk page Thanks. --Dave1g 07:37, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
