In direct contrast, modern consensus insists, “Documented deep in the earth’s crust are the progressive changes and modifications undergone by various groups of the plant kingdom through millions of years.”2

So, did plants really evolve over eons, or were they created in one day? New research demonstrates exactly why plants had to have been created in an instant.

A team of scientists led by researchers at the Scripps Research Institute and the University of Glasgow investigated the marvelous mechanism by which plant cells detect harmful UV-B radiation and then send signals that activate cellular UV-B protection regimes.3 Without UV detection and prevention, and without all the biochemicals for photosynthesis, plants would have long ago died.

A protein in plants called UVR8 responds to light in just the UV-B range. The protein consists of two identical halves that automatically link to one another just before light hits them. Investigators learned that when UV-B light hits a particular amino acid near the center of the dual complex to change its electrical charges, the halves separate and activate the protein.

The study appears online in Science Express. The lead authors said, “Other light-sensing proteins require a chemical modification or helper molecule to detect light, but UVR8 is unique in that it has these inbuilt UV-B-sensing tryptophan pyramids—structures that no one has seen before.”3….
