What are organisms that derive their chemical energy from the process of chemosynthesis?
Autotrophs
What are the strategies organisms use to get energy from their environment?
either eat sunlight directly (photosynthesis)or eat sunlight indirectly (eat plants, or eat animals which have eaten plants etc etc)or derive nutrients from stone (lithotrophic bacteria) or chemicals (chemotrophic bacteria)or derive nutrients and heat from hot ocean vents at the bottom of the sea
What type of organisms can use the engergy from the sun to make their own food?
Organisms that produce their own energy using sunlight are photosynthetic organisms. These are plants or other organisms that contain chloroplasts.
What do photosynthetic organisms have in common?
All photosynthetic organisms create energy from sunlight.
Green organisms convert energy in sunlight to energy stored in food during?
Photosynthesis
Where do phytoplankton get energy to produce for other organisms?
Phytoplankton are photosynthetic organisms. They get their energy from sunlight.
Identify the source of energy for most organisms?
The source of energy for most organisms is chemical energy and sunlight.
What are organisms that derive their chemical energy from the process of chemosynthesis?
Autotrophs
What is Sunlight also referred to as what kind of energy?

Organisms that produce their own energy using sunlight are photosynthetic organisms. These are plants or other organisms that contain chloroplasts.
What are organisms that use te sunlight for food called?
An organism that uses sunlight to make food or energy is known as a producer. An example of a producer is a plant. The plant utilizes the sunlight as energy to produce food.
What are organisms that make their own food with sunlight or chemical energy called?
Organisms that make their own food with sunlight or chemical energy are called autotrophs.
What are the organisms that change energy from sunlight to chemical energy?
Autotrophs (plants).
What do photosynthetic organisms have in common?
All photosynthetic organisms create energy from sunlight.
What are organisms that get energy from sunlight through photosynthesis?
chloriphil
What is sunlight's energy called?
Sunlight is electromagnetic radiation often referred to as solar power.
