Well, plants get they`re energy from the sun to carry out they`re daily functions, such as growing, making seeds, and producing glucose( sugar) for food. They use about 90% of the energy from the sun for daily life. But the left over 10% is given to the organism that eats the plant. Energy Pyramids are a way of showing how energy moves from organism to organism. From producers (plants) to primary consumers (herbivores) to secondary consumers (carnivores).All in all organisms eat eachother for energy and 10% of energy is transfered to the organism that`s consuming the organism being eaten.

Why would no other organisms have energy if plants were destroyed?
Because plants are at the bottom of the food chain and it they didn't provide food for other animals the whole food chain would die
What is the energy source in a food web or food chain?
plants
What is the main source of energy for a food chain of plants fish turtles and sharks?
Plants are always the base of any food chain.
How does energy enter this food chain?
It originates from the sun and enters the food chain when plants absorb it for photosynethis.
What is a sun in the food chain?
producer
What are producers in an ecosystem?
The producers are the plants (mostly autotrophs) that create the organic molecules that ultimately provide all of the chemical energy for the food chain.

What is transferred from plants to animals through the food chain?
Energy
What is used to pass energy from plants to animals?
food chain
Which member of the food chain requires sunlight to make food energy?
Plants
What is the baboon's food chain?
Silverback gorillas are animals that would be considered to be high on the food chain. There are not predators, other than humans, that prey on them.
What is the Energy that drives the food chain?
Ultimately, the energy that drives a food chain is solar energy. Plants absorb and convert this energy, which insects, birds, and other herbivores transfer up the food chain until it reaches humans.
