They Get it from sunlight.
sunlight
Sunlight is an abiotic factor in a freshwater ecosystem. It is essential for photosynthesis, which is crucial for the growth of plants and algae, forming the base of the aquatic food chain. The intensity and availability of sunlight influence the productivity and biodiversity of the ecosystem.
Algae and other plants make their own food from sunlight, so they are producers.
It's close enough to the shore, or land, that the sunlight reaches the bottom. So, plants and algae can grow because of the sunlight they receive. :) I hope I helped!
Photosynthesis is the process which creates glucose using sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. The equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight = C6H12O6 + 6 O2.
Marine algae are photosynthetic. At depths below 200m there is very little sunlight which would make photosynthesis extremely difficult.
Photosynthesis, taking in sunlight and CO2 and water.
Any organisms that perform photosynthesis, such as plants, and algae.
the plants at the bottom of the pond cannot photosynthesize and die as the floating plants are blocking the sunlight from reaching the plants at the bottom.the whole community of organisms there will be affected.
Algae and plants store their food in the form of starch. Starch is a polysaccharide that serves as an energy reserve within their cells. During photosynthesis, algae and plants convert sunlight into chemical energy, which is then stored as starch for later use.
no its a producer
