Two ways.

Eating plants that access the energy of sunlight directly.

or,

Eating the animals that eat the plants, or eating the animals that eat the animals that eat the plants.

All animals are heterotrophs. They can not synthesize their own food.

How does an animal gets energy from the sun?

Animals get energy from the sun by the chloroplasts in the animals cells. The chloroplasts capture energy from the sun and use it to produce energy to the cell and therefore, the animal.


The process by which a cell captures the energy in sunlight?

Plant cells use chloroplast- animals don't capture energy.


Where does energy in your food originally come from?

Energy in food comes from the sun. The sun is the source of energy in all food, because at some level in the food chain animals rely on animals that eat plants and plants derive their energy from the sun.


Why dosent an animal cell have chloroplasts?

because chloroplasts are organelles that capture the energy from sun light and convert it into chemical energy in a process call photosynthesis. and animals cant do that.


Term for organisms that cannot directly capture the sun's energy and make their own food?

Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot directly capture the sun's energy and make their own food. Instead, they rely on consuming other organisms or organic matter for energy. Examples include animals, fungi, and some types of bacteria.


Does chlorophyll capture energy from the sun for photosynthesis?

Yes! The chlorophyll captures the sun's energy and uses it for photosynthesis.


What are these panels used for?

How does energy from animals come originally from the sun?

Animals get their energy from other animals that have eaten plants or from plants themselves. Plants get their energy to produce sugars from the sun.


What is the energy for this process of chloroplasts?

Light energy from sun is used. Chlorophylls capture light energy


Is solar energy created in power plants?

No, solar energy is produced by the sun. We can capture it with solar panels, or solar farms, which are banks of panels or other gadgets to capture the sun's heat and energy. We can then transform this into electricity.


Could animals survive without plants?

No because animals eat plants so if animals didnt eat plants the plants would die unless watered.


What is the major source of energy for the food chain?

The sun is the major source of energy for the food chain through a process called photosynthesis. Plants, algae, and some bacteria capture sunlight to convert it into chemical energy that is then passed on to consumers in the food chain.
