How does a cell make its energy which organelle performs this function?

It depends, if its an animal cell the mitochondrea makes energy, for plants its the chloroplasts. Animals break down energy and sugar from what they eat, plants get energy from sunlight and CO2.


The process through which animals obtain energy for use by the cell?

Unlike plants, who make their own food for energy with help from the sun, animals have to digest carbohydrates and such from external sources. The energy from the food is then turned into the more readily usable ATP by the mitochondria.


What is an important difference between a plant and an animal?

chlorophyl Plants take in nutrients by absorption from their environment, and animals take in nutrients by bringing food inside their bodies and digesting it internally. Many plants, but not all, produce food by photosynthesis (using chlorophyl). Animals also have no cell walls, and all plants have cell walls.


How do organisms obtain energy from polysaccharides?

Because glucose is such an important molecule from which organisms obtain energy, plants and animals will string together units of glucose called polysaccharides. Plants store glucose as a polysaccharide called starch.


How do organisms obtain energy and why do they need it?

Organisms obtain energy through the process of cellular respiration, which involves breaking down food molecules to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell. Organisms need energy to carry out essential biological processes such as growth, reproduction, movement, and maintenance of cellular structures. Without energy, they would be unable to function or survive.


What is the difference between the metabolism of plants and animals?

Plants conduct photosynthesis to produce energy, while animals consume organic matter for energy. Plants store energy as starch, while animals store energy as glycogen or fat. Plants have cell walls made of cellulose, while animals do not.


Why doesn't animal cell need chloroplast?

Animals are chemo heterotrophs.They obtain carbon and energy from other organisms.


How do plants and animals store energy found in fossil fuels?

Plants and animals both store energy found in fossil fuels by going threw a system call cell fertilization thru out their life.


Why do plants and animals belong to two different kingdoms?

The main difference is that the plant kingdom has cell walls, and the animal kingdom doesn't. Plants use photosynthesis to create energy from sunlight, while animals use metabolism to create energy from food.


What are 2 major factors that make animals different from plants?

Animals have a digestive system that is complex to that of plants another difference is plants release the gas Oxygen while animals release Carbon Dioxide...humnas can eat plants but plants cannot eat humans..

How does food provide a source of enegry for living things?

Plants convert sunlight energy into chemical potential energy through the process of photosynthesis. The plant can then utilize this stored energy by breaking the bonds of the glucose through the process of cellular respiration, which takes place in the mitichondria of the cell. Animals can obtain this chemical potential energy when they consume plants or other animals. What they eat is broken down by digestion into the simple sugar glucose which is also used by the mitochondria at the cell level to release the stored energy in the form of ATP.


Why can plant perform photosynthesis but animals cannot?

Plants contain chloroplasts with chlorophyll, which allows them to capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy. Animals do not have chloroplasts and lack the necessary cellular machinery to carry out photosynthesis. Instead, animals obtain energy by consuming other organisms.
