The process also produces oxygen as a byproduct, which is released into the air. Imagine photosynthesis is like a magical kitchen for plants, where they use sunlight to cook up their own food and give us the oxygen we need to breathe".

The way the plague spread, especially during the Black Death in the 14th century, was mostly because of fleas on black rats. These fleas carried a germ called Yersinia pestis, which caused different types of plagues. When the fleas bit infected rats and then bit humans, they passed on the germs. As people traded goods and cities grew, rats and fleas moved around more, spreading the plague. Besides, if someone had the pneumonic plague, it could spread between people through the air when they coughed. Back then, people didn't know much about medicine, and living conditions were crowded and not very clean, making it easier for the plague to spread quickly and cause a lot of sickness and death.
