How do cells obtain energy from the sun?
Green plant cells change light energy into chemical energy.
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 cell organelle is responsible for obtaining energy?
Mitochrondria produces ATP (energy) for cells. Cloroplasts take in light energy or obtain energy for plant cells.
How plant and animal cells obtain and release energy?
Plants get their energy from the sun. They use the light from the sun in a process called photosynthesis. Animals get their energy from the consumption of food.
What is the difference between chemotrophs and chemolithotrophs?
The difference is the way they obtain energy. Chemotrophs are organisms that obtain energy by the oxidation of electron donors in their environments. These molecules can be organic (chemoorganotrophs) or inorganic (chemolithotrophs). Photoheterotrophs are heterotrophic organisms that use light for energy, but cannot use carbon dioxide as their sole carbon source.
How do autotrophs obtain energy and how do heterotrophs obtain energy?
Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light
What activities make plant and animal cells different in how they obtain energy?
One of the ways that plant and animal cells differ in how they obtain energy is the chloroplasts in plants. Plants take visible light, mostly red and blue, however they do take some green light waves, in through their chloroplasts, and do photosynthesis with the energy that they have attained from the sunlight. Plants are autotrophes; meaning they obtain their energy from abiotic sources, such as sunlight or inorganic chemicals. Animals are heterotrophs; meaning they obtain their energy and nutrients by consuming other organisms. I hope that helps!
How do cells obtain energy?
Green plant cells change light energy into chemical energy.
How do producers obtain energy?
Producers obtain their energy from light by making it via photosynthesis.
How do autotrophs and heterotrophs differ in way they obtain energy?
Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light
How do heterotrophs and autotrophs differ in the way they obtain energy?
Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light
After light energy travels to chloroplast in plant cells?
