When does free energy become availabe to organisms?
Free energy becomes available to organisms when they break down molecules through processes such as cellular respiration or photosynthesis, releasing stored energy in the form of ATP. This energy can then be used by the organism for various biological processes to support growth, development, and maintenance.
Are humans parasitic or free-living organisms?
Humans are considered free-living organisms, as we are capable of obtaining our own food and energy from the environment. While we rely on resources from the environment to survive, we are not considered parasitic because we do not solely depend on a single host for our survival.
Organisms that eat producers or other organisms for energy?
Organisms that eat other organisms for energy are hetreotrophs.
Where do organisms that photosynthesize get their energy?
Organisms that photosythesize get their energy from the sun
How do organisms that are not autotroph's get energy?
Organisms get energy by eating autotrophs.
What is meant by the term 'free oxygen'?
"Free oxygen" refers to oxygen that is not bound to other elements or molecules. It typically refers to molecular oxygen (O2) that is available in the atmosphere for respiration by living organisms.
What are some known sources for free energy?
Apart form Geothermal energy (heat from the core of the Earth) and Tidal energy (from the Earth's spin) all energy comes from the Sun which grew the organisms that form fossil fuels, drives the wind and rain and feeds plants. Sunlight is free!
The steps by which energy flows among a group of organisms is called?
A food chain.The steps by which energy flows among groups of organisms is called an energy pyramid. The energy pyramid shows what organisms get energy from other organisms and how much they get.
What is meant by flow of energy?
The flow of energy refers to the movement and transfer of energy through different processes, systems, or organisms in an ecosystem. Energy flows from the sun to producers (plants), then to consumers (herbivores, carnivores), and eventually to decomposers. This flow of energy is essential for sustaining life on Earth.
Identify the source of energy for most organisms?
The source of energy for most organisms is chemical energy and sunlight.
What are organisms that can consume other organisms for energy?
Organisms that can consume other organisms for energy are known as heterotrophs. This includes animals, fungi, and some types of bacteria. Heterotrophs rely on consuming organic matter to obtain the energy they need for survival.
What organisms get energy from other organisms?
Parasites
