How does energy from the sun help support life in an ecosystem?

It helps it by keeping the plants and trees alive. We are simmilar to animals and plants in an ecosystem. Without the suns energy we would be dead. It is the same way in an ecosystem. So basicly the sun provides all life to the Earth. If you have any more science questions e-mail me at austindennis1999@Yahoo.com. I will reply.

How does an animal eat another dead animal help an ecosystem?
it helps balance out the way of life in an ecosystem.
What are the human activities that help an ecosystem?
One is we support the plant life's natural process of photosynthesis by simply breathing. We send carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air for the plants to use. Another way we support an ecosystem is by creating balance in some places by not letting a single species become more dominant than the rest. Another way is we set laws against harming endangered species and we set up reserves to make sure that these places are safe. I hope this helped!
Which challenge of life does the plant help the bee meet?
acquiring energy I hoped that help
What natural disaster can help a ecosystem?
there is various like a volcano can destroy but can make newer life after
How do light and temperature affect the ability of an ecosystem to support life?
Lalalalala
Which is not an abiotic factor that affects an ecosystem capacity to support life?
sunlight
What kind of energy is inputted in an ecosystem?
The kind of energy that is inputted in an ecosystem is solar energy. Whether indirectly or directly, all living things use sunlight to maintain life.

How does the sun help support life on earth?
All life on Earth relies on energy to survive. With the exception of some life forms that survive on chemical energy created by the heat from the core of the planet, all the energy life uses comes form the Sun.Plants capture sunlight in a process called "photosynthesis" and make food (sugars) with it. Plants are then eaten by animals - this is called the food chain. The energy in this food chain is in the main sunlight and this is how the Sun supports (it does not help support it is the basis of) life on Earth.
What happens to warm ocean water when it loses heat energy?
Heat energy is important for the ocean ecosystem to thrive. If the ocean lost its heat energy the coral would lose its color and die and other marine life relying on the reefs for support would slowly die out. Currently the oceans are at a risk of gaining too much heat energy which will also be bad for the marine life.
Why are decompose-rs important to the ecosystem?
they help the ecosystem because they eat dead or decaying organisms to reproduce more....hense the circle of life.
How has the tsunami and earthquake in Japan affected the many ecosystem and their ability to support life?
It damaged their houses, buildings, and everything.
What is ecosystem With the help of the suitable models explain the energy flow in the ecosystem?
Ecosystem has two main components Biotic and Abiotic, which are independent of each other. Biotic components recive enrgy from abiotic component sunlight. This energy is further transferred from various strata in the Ecosystem which are based on the trophic system. It is teh structure that is based on dependence of one organism on another for teh nutrition purpose. The energy flows from basic producers to top level carnivores, and at the same time released into the atmosphere. The consumed energy is used to carry out various life functions.
What are two things that earth has that allows it to support life?
Oxygen and energy
What ecosystem do sea stars live in?
As far as i know they live in the sea. also in little tide pools that support sea life
Why is the sun is the primary source of energy in the ecosystem?
Because it is the main source for all plant life. Thus effecting the rest of the ecosystem. It is the main source for plant life because it is how photosynthesis happens. Without photosynthesis there would be no food for the plants. No energy in the plants and no energy or nutrients to pass along the chain. (Basically:::: Because plants would die without photosynthesis (from the sun) and so would everything else, because it is all connected.)
Why is photosynthesis such an important process in every ecosystem?
Because ecosystem itself comprises of animals, plants even microorganisms and celestial bodies, therefore without plant recieving energy from the sun and animals making use of plant as a source of energy there would'nt be life.
