Science - Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) / bionic plants
English term or phrase: the underlying mechanisms
The story of Iron ManMovie Camera, in which a man gains spectacular abilities by infusing his body with technology, is still just fantasy. But the first Iron Plants have been made. A team of biologists and engineers has made bionic plants that have been upgraded with an injection of nanotechnology.

The idea is two-fold: to boost plants' ability to photosynthesise, and to produce a new class of bionic materials that grow and repair themselves using little more than sunlight. But the results have been received with a mixture of amazement and scepticism, largely because the underlying mechanisms are something of a black box.

Но результаты были встречены со смесью удивления и скепсиса, во многом потому что лежащие в основе этого механизмы воспринимаются как некое подобие черного ящика.
