Animals get their solar energy by eating either 1) plants, or 2) other animals. Only plants possess the power of photosynthesis (the euglena is kind of an arguable case).
What else can I help you with?
How did ancient animal receive stored energy from the sun?
Ancient animals received stored energy from the sun indirectly by consuming plants or other animals that had converted solar energy through photosynthesis into chemical energy. This energy was then transferred up the food chain as animals fed on each other, allowing ancient animals to obtain the energy they needed to survive.
How energy from the sun is transferred through organisms?
First, energy from the sun is used to combine CO2 and water to make carbohydrates. The carbohydrates have stored energy that is released when the carbohydrates are broken down. When animals eat the plant and break down the carbohydrates, they receive energy. In turn, carnivores that eat those animals receive energy from the fats and proteins in their prey.
What role does the sun play in making fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels wwwwwwwere once living plants and animals. If they were plants they got their energy from the sun, and if they were animals they got their energy from eating plants who got their energy from the sun, or from eating animals who ate animals who ate plants who got their energy from the sun. In other words the sun is the source of all energy. The sun´s energy is stored in living beings, in plants and the animals that eat the plants, and if conditions are right, that energy is then stored in the form of fossil fuels.
Beans and coal both have stored energy. Where did the energy come from?
The stored energy in beans comes from the sun, through photosynthesis where plants convert sunlight into chemical energy. The energy in coal comes from ancient plants and organic matter that were buried and fossilized millions of years ago.
Animals get energy from the food they eat What is the original source of this energy?
The original source of energy for animals is the sun. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants convert sunlight into energy stored in carbohydrates, which animals then consume to obtain energy for their own metabolic processes.
Does the pond receive sunlight?
yes because the animals and small or big plants not only water receive, it can give the plants real fresh and all animals in the pond can be clean by the sun.
The engery from the sun is stored in what?
The energy that is produced from the sun is stored in plants.
Organic compound that has the sun's energy stored in it?
Organic compounds that store the sun's energy include carbohydrates such as glucose, which is produced in plants through photosynthesis. Glucose serves as a primary source of stored energy for both plants and animals.
How is it true that fossil fuels are ancient and stored forms of solar energy?
Solar energy (heat and light from the sun) grew the plants which fed the animals. The dead plants and animals, under immense pressure and heat, gradually turned into coal, oil and natural gas, the fossil fuels. When the fuel is burnt, that energy is released.
How do grazing animals receive suns energy?
the sun's energy goes into the grass and then the grazing animal eats the grass!
Does a lion obtain energy directly from the sun or indirectly?
All animals, including lions, obtain their energy from the sun indirectly.
Where do animals get their energy?
Animals receive energy from the foods they eat. The food gives animals energy just as food gives humans energy. Plants however, receive their engery in the form of solar energy...from the sun They get their energy from their food.
