Can all consumers get their energy directly from the sun?
No
How do consumers get their energy directly and indirectly from the sun?
Because they like sun food!(:
Do consumers get their energy from consumers?
It depends. When animals get produced, they are soon to be consumed by another bigger and stronger animal, but energy pyramids always start off by getting their energy from the sun.
What are some examples of energy sources?
During photosynthesis, a plant - whcih is a producer - absorbs light energy from the sun and converts it into glucose, which is what the plant uses for energy. Some of the energy that the plant made may be released into the atmosphere as heat, some will be eaten by insects and other herbovores, which are called primary consumers. Secondary consumers may eat the primary consumers, getting energy from eating them. Consumers get energy by eating other consumers or producers.
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.
Do consumers get energy indirectly from the sun?
Yes, consumers indirectly get energy from the sun through various processes. The sun's energy is captured by plants during photosynthesis, converting it into chemical energy stored in the form of carbohydrates. Consumers then obtain this energy by consuming plants or other organisms that have consumed plants.
Which of these groups CANNOT harvest energy from the sun?
Primary and secondary consumers cannot harvest energy from the sun. These consumers must eat producers to gain the sun's energy indirectly.
Can all consumers get their energy directly from the sun?
No
Where do producers consumers an decomposers obtain energy?
The energy in the producers comes from the sun. It feeds the consumers. The decomposers ultimately release the energy from the consumers and the producers that were not consumed.
Why is the sun important to both producers and consumers?
producers make energy from the sun and then consumers eat the producers, ex: a plant (producer) uses photosynthesis and the sun to make energy then a bunny (consumer) eats the plant for energy. so the sun is the source of energy
How is energy transferred through a food chain?
10% or the energy of THE SUN is transferred. 1 tertiary consumers 10 secondary consumers 100 primary consumers 1000 producers 10000 sun
How do consumers get their energy directly and indirectly from the sun?
Because they like sun food!(:
How do primary consumers obtain carbon?
Every producer gets its energy from the sun its called photosynthesis.
How do some producers and consumers each rely light from the sun?
The majority of producers (eg green plants) rely on the sun's energy to produce food. Primary consumers eat plants so in an indirect way the consumers are also relying on the sun's energy for their food
There is less energy available to consumers at higher levels in a food why?
There is less energy available to consumers(animals) ,because most of the energy from the sun is used by the producers(plants)
Do all consumers need the sun's energy for survival?
Ir dependa
Who are the consumers of solar energy?
Plants are the primary consumers of the sun's energy. Plants convert the energy into food for themselves and other creatures. Animals eat the plants, thereby transferring their energy to the animal. A plant that produces its own food by using the sun's energy is called an autotroph.
