What is used to gather and store solar energy?
the sun
How can the sun be used as an energy source?
Radiational heat
How was solar energy used in the past?
Solar energy was used because it was free and convenient. We planted crops and fruit trees where they would grow in the sun. The sun and the wind dried our clothes after washing. The sun was also used just to keep us warm. When you sit in the sun you are using solar energy to do just that. People built their houses facing the sun, if possible, to warm them. Now houses are designed with their windows facing the sun, to take advantage of solar energy.
What energy you get from the sun?
Sun energy.
Energy from the sun?
Energy from the sun is called solar energy.
How do corn oil and petrol get their energy from the sun?
Corn plants get their energy from the sun through a biochemical process called photosynthesis. Petrol energy is also from the sun in that, even though it comes from underground, it is the remains of plants and animals from millions of years ago which got their energy in the same fashion that corn plants do now. (The plants used the photosynthesis; the animals ate those plants.)A:Ultimately, it can be said that the energy from petrol and corn oil come from the Sun. Corn oil is produced from corn. Corn gets the energy needed for its survival by photosynthesis, which needs light. The energy from that light(which comes from the Sun) is stored in chemical substances, such as corn oil. Petrol is formed from dead organisms over the course of millions of years. These organisms, when they were alive, consumed plants(such as corn). The energy from the corn(remember, it comes from the Sun) is stored in the meat of the animals. After they die, this energy is now stored in Petrol, after millions of years.Energy from the Sun -----> Energy in Plants -----> Energy in Animals -----> Energy in Petrol

How much solar energy does an owl receive?
Directly, none, unless it is sleeping in sunlight during the day. However, indirectly, it receives all its energy from the sun. The mouse that it eats got energy from the corn it ate. The corn got its energy from the sun (photosynthesis).
Why is corn used for energy?
Corn is used to make ethanol because it is burns cleaner than petroleum.
What are eco-frienfly sources of energy?
The most commonly used and widely available sources of eco-friendly energy are the sun, wind, water, and bio-diesel (from corn, grass, cooking oil, ect.).
What can be powered with sun energy?
Sun energy can be used as a primary energy source to produce electricity which can be used in all end-user energy application.
How energy gets from the sun to being used in your muscles?
The sun's energy is used to grow food, you eat and digest the food and get energy from it.
Mice eat corn. hawks eat mice. which term describes the corn in this foodchain?
The sun !... Ultimately all energy on Earth is supplied by the sin.
Is corn a autotroph?
Yes corn is an autotrophic plant. Autotrophic organisms are able to produce their own food using light energy from the sun water and carbon dioxide. Corn is an example of an autotrophic organism because it can make its own food from these sources. It does so by using a process called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis corn takes in carbon dioxide and water and uses the energy of the sun in order to produce glucose which it uses as a source of energy.
Why the Sun is the source of most of the energy used?
how this energy source of the sun is used The sun has energy already stored in it and it basically it lets it go; don't forget solar panels too!
Why the sun is a source of energy?
yes them sun is a major source of energy because the sun is used 4many things
What tells you that eating corn gives you energy?
Corn is a good food source because one is not constantly drilling into the Earth and taking away from its natural resources. Farmers can grow an abundance of corn to use for fuel as well as food.
