hydrogen cycle

hydrogen cycle
a) the transmission of hydrogen from water to carbohydrates etc and back to water by living organisms
b) the electrolysis or solar photolysis of water to give hydrogen and oxygen which are then recombined in a fuel cell to produce electricity <! you know it makes sense!
