Process by which autotrophs trap energy from sunlight with chlorophyll and use this energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars?
photosynthesis
Breaking down carbohydrates to release energy?
The two organisms that break down carbohydrates to release energy from cells are autotrophs and heterotrophs. Autotrophs trap sunlight and store it in carbohydrates.
What organism performs photosynthesis?
Autotrophs. They are basically organisms that can trap light energy in sunlight to catalyze the production of sugars. They most certainly contain a chlorophyll pigment.
What trap sunlight or energy?
Chloroplasts in plants trap sunlight or light energy. They use this during photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide also traps the suns energy and that is why it is a greenhouse.
Does chlorophyll trap energy from sunlight?
Yes
Captures energy from sunlight?
it's plant. they use chlorophyll and trap sunlight energy
Are all autotrophs producers?
No. Some autotrophic bacteria that exist in dark regions of the earth and ocean obtain energy from a process called chemosynthesis rather than photosynthesis. Please refer to the related link to read a Wikipedia article on chemosynthesis.
How do chloroplast get engery from sunlight?
They use chlorophyll to trap energy.Pigments absorb energy from sunlight.
Does plants use chlorophyll to trap sunlight?
b. energy, I think I'm taking the same test as you (e2020)
What process take place inside chloroplasts?
Thylakoids inside of the chloroplasts trap sunlight. They convert the sunlight to carbon dioxide and then to glucose. This in turn gives energy to the plant. The plant then releases oxygen. This process is known as photosynthesis.
What does chloroplast trap from sunlight?
Chloroplasts need energy for photosynthesis. It takes this energy from light
Is the Plantae kingdom autotroph heterotroph or both?
Autotrophs because it is the Plants kingdom. Plants make their own food and that is what autotrophs mean. Own food makers. ... Although, there are plants like the venus fly trap and the pitcher-something that eat insects... ... However, they are mostly autotrophs.
