We have quite a wide variety of cells here on planet Earth, so there isn't any one source of energy more specific than chemical reactions. You may think that the sun is the source of all the energy of living cells, directly or indirectly, but there are vent organisms which are not part of the food chain that starts with photosynthesis. They use sulfur emitted by underwater vents, instead.

Producers get their food from the sun using a process called photosynthesis.
Consumers earn their energy from eating other living organisms.
Decomposers get their source of food or energy by breaking down dead or decaying organisms.

Do organisms obtain energy from photosynthesis?
Yes, photosynthesis is what converts the light energy from the sun into the usable chemical energy that organisms use.
Which kind of organisms obtain energy only from producers?

Why is there no chloroplasts in animal cells?
Animals are chemoheterotrophic organisms. They obtain energy and carbon through other organisms.
Organisms such as hawks and leopards that I am obtain energy from the foods they consume are called what?
Heterotrophs
How do hetetrophs obtain energy?
They obtain their energy by consuming other organisms.
Are organisms that obtain energy from other organisms?
Animals.
Do jackrabbits obtain their energy from other organisms?
Like ALL animals, yes. They get energy from the plants they eat.
How do organisms obtain and use energy?
In which kingdom do all of the members obtain energy by breaking down dead organisms?
fungi
What is the universal fuel that almost all organisms burn in order to obtain energy?

In what way are herbivores and carnivore alike?
They both obtain energy by consuming other organisms
What is a general name for the process by which organisms obtain energy?
They obtain energy through metabolism.-NovaNET
What is the definison for organisms that obtain energy by feeding on other organisms?

What are the organisms that obtain energy from food?
Consumers
Where organisms obtain the energy they need?
hydrosphere
Where do all organisms ultimately get their energy?
The ultimate source of energy for all organisms on our planet is the sun. (High-energy compounds, especially ATP, are often described as the immediate source of energy.)
