What are the links between the energy that carnivores get from eating to the entergy captured by photosynthesis?
The sun gives off energy in the form of sunlight. The sunlight is then absorbed by plants. Herbivores and first-level consumers eat the plants, therefore absorbing some of the energy. Carnivores and second-level consumers eat the herbivores, absorbing some of THEIR energy, which came from the plants in the first place!
What do plants provide for animals?
Some animals are herbivores therefore, they eat plants and the plants provide them with energy. :)
Which type of organism produces energy from sunlight?
Autotrophs gather energy directly from the sun. Herbivores eat plants.
What do carnivores from the savanna depend on for food?
actually they depend on our main source of energy the sun indirectly the sun lets plants photosynthesize then the herbivores will eat the plants so they can survive and so the carnivores will eat the herbivores this is called the food chain
How do omnivores carnivores herbivores depend on each other?
carnivores would totally depend on herbivores to transfer energy from plants into a form of which they can eat,themselves. omnivores would partially depend as they can only transfer certain plants into energy.
What average percentage of plant production goes to animal consumption?
100% The sun gives energy to the plants, the plants give energy to the herbivores, and the carnivores get their energy from the herbivores.
Where does the energy for a food chain or food web originate from?
The sun. The sun gives energy to the plants, and then the herbivores, then carnivores eat the herbivores or omnivore's eat herbivores
How is energy from the sun passed on their animals?
Plants use the sun´s energy (the energy in photons, light particles) to synthesize glucose from smaller chemical particles. They eventually use glucose to grow. Herbivores eat the plants and take up the energy in their cells, and use it to grow themselves. Carnivores may eat the herbivores and do the same.

Where does earth get all its energy from?
All energy stems from the sun. For example, all life needs photosynthesis. All of our energy is just converted sunlight from plants. The herbivores eat the plants. The carnivores eat the herbivores.
What element supports all animal life?
The sun. The sun gives energy to the plants, the plants give that energy to herbivores when they are eaten, the herbivores are then eaten by the carnivores and so the cycle continues.
Why is it said that all life depends on chlorophyll?
Well most plants need chlorophyll. there are exceptions of course. But do to the food chain, all energy comes from the sun. the plants get the energy from the sun. The herbivores steal the plants converted solar energy. Then the carnivores get energy from those herbivores. If the plants weren't constantly supplying energy (from choroplasts), then what?
What do herbivores like?
Herbivores get their energy from feeding on plants, and only plants
Do Plants Pass on Energy through Food Chains?
YES they do, plants provide energy for whatever eats them like herbivores
What is the name of Dinosaur that eats only plants?
Plant-eating animals (herbivores like Triceratops). The herbivores get their energy by eating plants (like cycads). The plants (producers or autotrophs) get their energy from sunlight, converting the light into chemical energy using photosynthesis.
How does the sun support animals?
It gives energy to the plants which herbivores eat. carnivores eat the herbivores and absorb their energy. when something dies the plants absorb the energy for the cycle to start again. The sun is the main component of the food chain.
What do plants provide for animals?
Some animals are herbivores therefore, they eat plants and the plants provide them with energy. :)
