Can you use a 100 watt light energy saving bulb in an old fashion light fixture that only allows 60 watt bulbs. The energy saving bulb says it only actually uses 23 watts.?

Different technologies produce different amounts of light - measured in lumens - for a given amount of electric power - measured in watts.
Incandescent: 12 lumens per watt
Halogen: 16 lumens per watt
CFLs: 50-60 lumens per watt
LEDs: 100-120 lumens per watt

Can I take a bulb out of my led lamp to save energy or will it damage the lamp or the other bulbs?
Taking a lamp out of any light fixture will save energy, though it might be hard to see things in the dark. The lamp will not be damaged without lamp being in the fixture.
What is a substance that allows easy transfer of energy called?
A conductor allows easy transfer of energy.
What does cellular respiration allows an organism to get energy from?
In case of the cellular respiration, glucose molecule is burned out to carbon bi oxide and water. In chemical burning you get heat released suddenly. In case of biological oxidation, the energy is released in step wise fashion. Most of the energy is trapped in ATP molecule. Some of the energy is released as heat.
What law of thermodynamics allows perpetual energy machines?
The first law might allow a perpetual energy machine where energy is extracted from the surroundings to power the machine, but the second law explains why such a perpetual motion machine won't actually be able to work.
What part of a plant cell is most similar to a solar cell?
Solar cells are not like leaves of plants in almost every fashion. The similarity is that they both get their energy from the sun, however the solar cell gets this energy in a completely different fashion when compared to a leaf.

What allows a force to work?

This type of energy allows people to see?
nothing
What is the energy source that allows photosynthesist to take place?
Energy from the sun is what allows plants to make their own energy through photosynthesis.
Does a down light consume less electricity?
The fixture construction has nothing to do with the amount of energy that the fixture uses. It is the lamp in the fixture that draws the amperage. This amperage times the fixtures voltage is what gives you the fixtures wattage. W = A x V. Watts = Amps x Volts.

If you leave one bulb in a triple light fixture will you save energy?
As opposed to having 3 bulbs in it, yes.

What does conservation of energy allow energy to do?
It allows energy to change from one type to another.
The property of a system that allows it to do work?
Energy
