How is energy used by living things?some is transfered into the directily usable form of energy, ATP and is used that wayAll living things need energy to survive. Energy allows living things to grow, defend themselves,and move around.
The form of energy that is important is the sun because all living things need some type of radiation to give them vitamins besides the ones we take from a store
Sun is the original source of energy that drives photosynthesis, climate, wind, almost everything on Earth.
The nutrient that supplies energy for almost all living things is glucose. Glucose is a form of sugar that is broken down through cellular respiration to release energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This energy is then used for various biological processes in the cell.
No, laser beams are not living things. They are a form of light energy that is emitted by a laser device. Living things are biological entities that have the ability to grow, reproduce, and respond to stimuli, which lasers do not possess.
Energy can change from one form to another.For example,living things store potential energy as chemical energy.
All living things use chemical energy.
animals may change its form or shape

A cells use ATP as their main form of chemical energy.
Sugars of various types
photosynthesis

carbon is present in our foods and provides energy in form of glucose.
Much life on earth relies on the sun's energy in the form of heat and light. Without it, the earth would be too cold and dark for living things to exist. Green plants use the sun's energy to make food. Animals and people get their energy by eating animals that eat plants. EXAMPLE: An energy chain: Sun to Animals eating plants and then person drinking milk.
The type of molecule that serves as a living things main source of energy is a carbohydrate. The most important carbohydrate is glucose. Glucose is the basic form of fuel in living things.
