What is stored in the body that contains energy until it is needed?
Fat.
One product of photosynthesis is one of sugar?
It is stored by the plant until the plant needs energy.
What does a seed contain that provides energy to germinate?
Seeds no matter what size are packages of genetic material and energy that are living in the same way the plant that they came from is/was living. the seeds continue to be living until they start growing. Some plant seeds from some plants and trees can remain viable for 100's of years. That is they can fall from the tree and remain in the soil for a hundred years until the conditions are correct for it to start growing. the correct conditions act like a trigger and then bam, the energy in the seed is released as roots and leaves and then it start absorbing energy from its surroundings. So the answer is seeds get there energy from the parent plant. seeds are a package of genetic material and certain nutrients necesary for the roots and leaves to grow. moisture is often the trigger. Google it!
How is energy transferred from producer to consumer?
Well, first the energy will start from the sun and the plant will turn the light energy into chemical energy, then an organism will eat this plant. Now since every time an organism consumes another organism or plant it will only be able to absorb 10% of its energy. Then the cycle will continue until the top carnivore dies and the decomposes absorb the energy and start the cycle over.
When a seed sprout into a new plant the process is called what?
It is called germination. The seed provides food for the first stages of growth, until the new root system can provide nutrients for the plant to grow.
If placed in a hypotonic solution a plant cell will?
No, because the plant cell contains a cell wall which causes the plant cell not to burst. But, it will gain water until it cannot take anymore and the pressure will prevent more water from entering.
What is the function of mesophyll?
responsible for storing energy and nutrients until they can be transmitted to the veins in the leaf and sent elsewhere in the plant where they are needed
What is the way energy is transferred from producers to consumers to decomposers?
Well, first the energy will start from the sun and the plant will turn the light energy into chemical energy, then an organism will eat this plant. Now since every time an organism consumes another organism or plant it will only be able to absorb 10% of its energy. Then a secondary consumer will eat this organisms and gain 10% of the energy it had. Then the top carnivore will eat this animal and will only gain 10% of its energy. Then the cycle will continue until the top carnivore dies and the decomposes absorb the energy and start the cycle over.
Describe the three parts of a seed and their function?
The three parts of a seed are the embryo, the cotyledon, and the seedcoat. The embryo is what grows into the plant, the cotyledon provides food for the plant to grow, and the seedcoat helps protect the plant until it grows large enough to survive better.
Why is it significant that both generations of a fern are photosynthetic?
Usually a plant will not begin to photosynthesise until it has reached maturity, but in the case of ferns photosynthesis begins early and gives the plant more energy to grow.
How much energy is stored in a battery?
Depends on how big it is (button cell, car battery?) and on its chemical type.
Is a flower seed living or non living?
A flower seed is alive. It contains an embryo plant which uses the endosperm in the seed for nourishment until it is planted and starts to grow.
