None. Every animal either eats plants, or eats another animal that eats plants, or eats another animal that eats another animal that eats plants.

How do plants and animals get their energy in different ways-?
Plants get their energy through photosynthesis, and animals get their energy by consuming plants or other animals.
What is the difference in which in animals and plants store energy?
What is the difference in which in animals and plants store energy?
How did plants and animals get their energy before coming fossil fuels?
Same way they get energy now. Plants get energy from sunlight via photosynthesis and animals get energy from eating plants and other animals.
Living things depend on energy from?
All living things depend on energy from the sun. Even though animals get their energy from either plants or from animals that eat plants, those plants get their energy from the sun, so it all comes back to the sun.
What are some of the differences with plants and animals?
Plants produce oxygen and sugars to feed themselves using CO2, sunlight, and water. Animals have to consume food for energy because they can't get energy from sunlight. Animals move, but plants cannot. Plant cells have cell walls and chloroplasts, but animals do not. There are also a vast number of anatomical differences; far too many to list here.
What can plants do that animals can't?
plants can make there own food but animals cannot

Why cannot animals make food from carbon dioxide?
Animals have no source of energy to make food. Animals get energy from the food they eat. Plants have a way of capturing energy from sunlight which they then use to make carbohydrates
How does energy from animals come originally from the sun?
Animals get their energy from other animals that have eaten plants or from plants themselves. Plants get their energy to produce sugars from the sun.
What is the release of energy in plants and animals from food?
The release of energy in plants and animals food is chemical energy.
Plants and animals get there energy from what?
plants: sunlight for photosynthesis animals: plants, other animals

What is energy flow in the circle of life?
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one type of energy into another. All of our energy comes from the Sun. Plants store that energy in the 'food' they make, glucose, a type of sugar, which then gets packaged into larger molecules of starch. Animals eat plants and the energy in the plants is used by the animals which eat the plants to provide the fuel for all the chemical reactions in their body. Then other animals eat the animals which eat the plants and so on and so on. So the energy comes from the Sun, is stored (and used) by plants through photosynthesis, then by organisms which eat the plants and so on.
Why plants directly gets solar energy but not in animals?
Plants have an organelle in their cells called chloroplasts that allows them to utilize the sun's rays and make food for energy. Animals, on the other hand, do not have this organelle and therefore cannot make their own energy from the sun's rays.
Is a reptile a consumer or a producer?
Most things that are not plants are consumers. So, too, are reptiles consumers because the can consume plants or other animals for energy, but cannot produce their own energy.
