Organisms that get energy by consuming food?
All animals, carnivorous plants, and some bacteria.
What position is the purple loosestrife in the food web?
the puple loosestrife is a producer as well as a consumer. it provides food and energy to some organisms but it also takes the food and energy also needed for other organisms
Some organisms perform photosynthesis to produce energy other organisms cannot do photosynthesis what can they do in order to generate energy?
Some organisms perform photosynthesis to produce energy other organisms cannot do photosynthesis what can they do in order to generate energy?
Where do chemotrophs get energy from?
Most get their energy from food. However some very specialized organisms obtain energy from inorganic sources in extreme environments such as undersea vents.
Does the stomach store food energy and nutrients until body needs them?
No. stomach does not store the food. It digest the proteins to some extent.
What gas do some organisms use to release energy stored in food?
methane.... meaning farts.
What is the name of the path of energy from producer to carnivore?
It's the circle of life, of course! The sun gives energy to the grass, the bunny eats the grass and gets the energy, the hawk eats the bunny and then dies and decomposes into the ground, and feeds the grass which feeds the bunny...
Why does food store energy?
Just like humans, foods store energy inside it, and because of that, there are some tiny particles of energy running around inside it, which is how it brings the goodness and the fruity taste of it.
What are the organisms that must get their energy from food sources?
heterotrophs
Why must organisms be able to store energy?
A cell can't always immediately use all the energy it gets. If they can not use their energy it would be a huge waste to just get rid of it. So they store it for a time when they may not have the required nutrients around to make any more. To sum up it allows them some degree of starvation prevention. i dont know either but ill put answer choices so people can figure it out and answer it for us. 1)a cell cant always immediately use all the energy it gets(its this one i think) 2)an organism often has times when no energy is used (not this one, i already proved it to be wrong) 3)a cell can release only stored energy 4)a cell cannot create energy and must get it from elsewhere in the organism Organisms need a way to store energy because... A cell can't always immediately use all the energy it gets. Organisms need to store energy because they use it to play out their every day routine of finding food to eat, eating, mating, and surviving, which all require energy.
How does grass store energy?
they get energy from the sunlight also by photosynthesis
How do organisms use chemical energy to do work?
*Energy is the capacity to do work or cause change* Organisms store energy in organic molecules as chemical energy* Free energy is the portion of energy released during chemical reactions that is available to do work* -
