A team of biochemists uncovered evidence for design when they successfully mapped the structure of the light-gathering complex in the cells of spinach leaves. They found inside the cells on the sunward surfaces of spinach leaves a complex of 24 chlorophyll molecules arranged in a specific configuration that absorbed and redirected light energy efficiently. The chlorophyll molecules also functioned as light and heat dissipaters during high-light conditions when the cell is in danger of being cooked by too much sunlight. This amazing and exquisite design of the spinach leaf chlorophyll complex points to supernatural design.
