Organisms that make their own food with sunlight or chemical energy are called autotrophs.
The source of energy for most organisms is chemical energy and sunlight.
Autotrophs (plants).
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.
through a process called photosynthesis.
The process of changing energy from sunlight into chemical energy is called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants utilize sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar) and oxygen. This process is crucial for plant growth and is the primary source of energy for most living organisms.
The original energy in most ecosystems enters through sunlight. Sunlight is captured by plants through the process of photosynthesis, where they convert sunlight into chemical energy. This energy is then passed on to other organisms when they consume the plants or other organisms that have consumed plants.
it converts sunlight energy into chemical energy
No, chemical energy is not an inexhaustible resource. It is stored in molecules and can be depleted through chemical reactions. Fossil fuels, for example, are a finite source of chemical energy that is being consumed at a rapid pace.
Autotrophs
Chloroplasts, they are found in plant cells. They use what is called photosynthesis, and that, would be your 'chemical energy".
