How do hetetrophs obtain energy?

They obtain their energy by consuming other organisms.


What type of organism can use fermentation to obtain energy?

Many types of organisms can use fermentation to obtain energy, including bacteria, yeast, and some fungi. Fermentation is a metabolic process that allows these organisms to produce energy without using oxygen.


Three ways for organisms to get energy?

Through the process of photosynthesis, plants and some bacteria can convert sunlight into chemical energy. Animals obtain energy by consuming other organisms through eating and digesting food. Some organisms, like certain bacteria and fungi, can obtain energy through the process of chemosynthesis, using inorganic compounds as a source of energy.


What is the process through which organisms obtain and release energy?

The process is respiration (cellular respiration). It breaks down the compounds called carbohydrates to release the energy stored there (which almost always originally came from photosynthesis).


Are organisms that obtain energy from other organisms?

Animals.


Photosynthetic bacteria obtain energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules?

Yes, photosynthetic bacteria use a process called anoxygenic photosynthesis to obtain energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules. This process allows them to generate ATP and reduce electron carriers to create a proton gradient for ATP synthesis.


What is the primary method by which most heterotrophic organisms obtain energy for their cellular processes?

The primary method by which most heterotrophic organisms obtain energy for their cellular processes is by consuming and breaking down organic matter through the process of cellular respiration.


How do organisms obtain and use energy?


What do you call organisms that obtain food for energy?

The most general answer is a consumer, which is then divided into carnivores (which eat other animals), herbivores (which eat plants) and detrivores (which eat non-living organic material).


In what way are herbivores and carnivore alike?

They both obtain energy by consuming other organisms


Which process is not required for an animal to obtain energy from food?

Photosynthesis is not required for animals to obtain energy from food, as it is the process by which plants and some other organisms convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. Animals must digest and metabolize food, but they do not perform photosynthesis.


What are the organisms that obtain energy from food?

Consumers
