Not all organisms can create their own energy from the sun, only if you mean plants. We, humans, can't create energy from sun directly, but can indirectly create energy from plants through the food chain. Plants create energy through the process of photosynthesis, and we humans either eat the plant or eat the organism that ate the plant to obtain energy.
Hope that helps!

∙ 7y agoNo. That would be a violation of thermodynamics, energy can only be transformed one one form to another, never created or destroyed.
- plants extract their energy from sunlight using a process called photosynthesis, then store the energy by making the sugar glucose for later use
- animals and fungi extract their energy from the foods they eat
- bacteria extract energy from many sources depending on the type of bacteria and the environment they live in: some extract energy from sunlight using variants of photosynthesis, some extract energy from food they eat, some extract energy from the hot water of thermal vents or hot springs they live in, some extract energy by chemical processes involving dissolved metals or dissolved sulfur in the water they live in, etc.
- etc.

What organisms cells store energy from the sun?
Plant cells store energy from the sun. They do this because they need the sunlight to make food and because they cannot create energy on their own.
What do photosynthetic organisms have in common?
All photosynthetic organisms create energy from sunlight.
What type of organisms can use the engergy from the sun to make their own food?
Organisms that produce their own energy using sunlight are photosynthetic organisms. These are plants or other organisms that contain chloroplasts.
What organism cant make its own foodand gets its energy by eating other organisms?
Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot make its own food and gets energy by eating other organisms.
Explain the importance of autotrophic organisms with respect to energy flow and nutrient cycling in ecosystems?
They use things such as sunlight to create their own food. (photosynthesis)
What cell would you expect to find only in autotrophic organisms?
Autotrophic organisms are animals or plants that can create their own energy from the Sun. The organelle most common in these organisms are chloroplasts.
Is a camel an autotroph or heterotroph?
Camels are heterotrophs. Autotrophs are organisms that create their own food, such as plants. Heterotrophs are organisms that consume other organisms for nutrients/energy.
What do all consumers depend on to get their energy?
All living organisms, that are catagorized as consumers, depend on eating other organisms for energy, although, producers create their own energy from the abiotic features of an ecosystem.
Which organisms create all usable food energy on Earthconsumers?
Which organisms create all usable food energy on Earth?consumers
What organisms cells store energy from the sun?
Plant cells store energy from the sun. They do this because they need the sunlight to make food and because they cannot create energy on their own.
What do photosynthetic organisms have in common?
All photosynthetic organisms create energy from sunlight.
Is a bridled nail-tailed wallaby a producer?
No - producers are organisms that create their own food (such as plants). All animals are consumers, they must eat other organisms to obtain energy.
What do all photosynthetic organisms have in common?
All photosynthetic organisms create energy from sunlight.
What organism can change from being autotrophic to being heterotrophic?
Heterotrophs get their energy from other organisms. They must either feed on other heterotrophs or on autotrophs, which create their own energy.
What type of organisms can use the engergy from the sun to make their own food?
Organisms that produce their own energy using sunlight are photosynthetic organisms. These are plants or other organisms that contain chloroplasts.
