Living things depend on energy from?
All living things depend on energy from the sun. Even though animals get their energy from either plants or from animals that eat plants, those plants get their energy from the sun, so it all comes back to the sun.
Do the autotrophic cells in either plants or animals?
Only plants can be autotrophic (using light or chemical energy as their energy source). Animals are all heterotrophic.
What kind of food do plants provide us?
this is coming staight out of my 7th grade science textbook: Heterotrophs are animals that get their food from other living things. They eat them, which gives them their energy. All animals are heterotrophs. All plants are Autotrophs. Autotrophs are plants that make their own food. They get their energy not from eating other things like animals, but from the sunlight. That's why plants need sunlight to live, because it's their food. No, not because they will get all crispy and brown if they don't have sunlight. (well, yes, that too) EVERY living organism gets their food (energy) from sunlight. Plants get it directly (photosynthesis) and animals get it by eating plants or other animals that have eaten plants.
Do all living things need energy. true or false?
Not directly but we eat animals that eat plants that need the sun
What is the source of energy for primary producer?
Solar Energy. Without it, all living things will die. With solar energy, we have vegetation, for animals to survive on. And the humans have both animals and plants to survive on therefore all living things need the Sunlight/Solar Energy to live. It is the source of energy for all producers.
What do Nearly all living things obtain energy either directly or?
Photosynthesis gives plants energy, and when animals eat the plants, they gain energy from the plants. And, of course, when animals eat other animals, they indirectly obtain energy from the plants, which get their energy from the sun. So, the answer would be the sun.
What uses energy from sunlight to make energy-rich food?
Technically, everything-we all get all of our energy from the sun. Plants convert the energy into food that we consume directly, or indirectly through the animals that eat the plants. We gain the energy from eating the plants or the animals.
What gets it's energy indirectly from the sun?
All animal life on the earth get their energy indirectly from the sun as they consume plants that get their energy directly from the sun or other animals that have consumed plants.
Why do all animals depends on plants for food?
Look at it this way:-All life needs energy, to grow, move, reproduce etc.The source of this energy is the light from our local star (the Sun).Animals can not make thir own food or use of sunlight directly - they obtain the energy they need by eating plants or other animals that eat plants. Animals are consumers.Plants however can make direct use of sunlight, their green leaves trap the sunlight and store the energy of the sunlight as chemical energy in sugars which they produce. Plants are therefore called producers.Thus as you can see plants form the basis of the energy supply for all animals.
How do animals capture energy from the sun?
Two ways. Eating plants that access the energy of sunlight directly. or, Eating the animals that eat the plants, or eating the animals that eat the animals that eat the plants. All animals are heterotrophs. They can not synthesize their own food.
Does your body get all its energy from sun . explain?
Yes - indirectly. We get energy from the food we eat, which comes from animals or plants; animals also get their energy from plants; and plants get the energy from sunlight.
Living things depend on energy from?
All living things depend on energy from the sun. Even though animals get their energy from either plants or from animals that eat plants, those plants get their energy from the sun, so it all comes back to the sun.
Because plants are eaten by animals almost all life on earth is directly or indirectly...?
Because plants are eaten by animals, almost all life on Earth is directly indirectly...
Which level the energy pyramid contains the most energy?
The bottom level which contains plants has the most energy. This is because they get their energy directly from the sun while other animals get it from plants themselves, or other animals. Animals cannot absorb 100% of the energy when they eat plants so the level of energy degrades all the way to the top of the food chain. Each animal gets less and less % of the energy the plant had in the first place.
What animal Needs the sun to be active?
All animals need sunlight to be active, weather directly or not. For example animals who eat plants need sunlight to make the plants that they eat to get energy. For meat eaters its a bit more complicated. They eat the animals who eat plants who use the sun. so indirectly all animals need sunlight.
Do the autotrophic cells in either plants or animals?
Only plants can be autotrophic (using light or chemical energy as their energy source). Animals are all heterotrophic.
Where did the fossil fuels get there energy?
Ultimately, all energy only comes from the Sun. This is how the energy is transferred: Sun>plants>animals. Therefore, fossil fuels obtain their energy from plants itself and animals when they've consumed plants.
