Plants and fungi that thrive on dead tissues of plants and animals?
The Eumycota are fungi that thrive on the dead tissues of plants and animals. They get their nutrients from decomposed matter and store them as energy.
Where do plants store energy during photosynthesis?
which carbohydrate don plants cells store energy
What stored energy in plants?
Batteries and plants store cell energy. Humans also store cell energy until it is needed. If there was no way to save energy all cells would be used up and the body, battery or plant would be dead.
Does starch provide energy for the animals?
starch is the store of sugar in plants wheras glycogen is the store of sugar in animals. So quite simply the answer would be no animal cells do not contain starch but they do have there own form of it.
Do plants store glycogen?
Nonexistent. Glycogen isn't in plants.
Why are fats and oils important to animals and plants?
Animals and plants use fats and oils to store energy and insulation
How do plants and animals store energy found in fossil fuels?
Plants and animals both store energy found in fossil fuels by going threw a system call cell fertilization thru out their life.
What molecule do plants use to store energy?
Both plants and animals store chemical energy in a nucleotide called ATP (Adenosine-TriPhosphate). This nucleotide acts as a coenzyme for different processes in cells when it releases energy by turning into ADP (adenosine Diphosphate).
Which do you think lived first -- plants or animals. why do you think so?
No "thinking" required here: plants preceded animals by eons. The reason is energy. Plants store it; animals burn it up. The processes are called synthesis (photosynthesis, if the energy is in the form of light) and respiration. Stored energy has to be built up before it can be used. Animals get that energy from plants by eating them.
Plants and fungi that thrive on dead tissues of plants and animals?
The Eumycota are fungi that thrive on the dead tissues of plants and animals. They get their nutrients from decomposed matter and store them as energy.
Two that store energy are starch which is produced by plants and glycogen which is produce by animals?
monosaccharides
What is the main function of starch in plants?
The main function of starch in plants is to store energy.
All organisms use ADP to store energy?
No. They use ATP as an energy source (ADP is left over after the energy is used). There is no storage there. Animals use fat to store energy, plants use starch.
Where does an organism store energy?
A small amount of energy is stored in the cells. For animals the major energy store are the fat reserves and for plants the major energy stores is starch. Single celled creatures use glucose.
Where do plants store chemical energy?
Plants store chemical energy in sugar molecules. Plants go through photosynthesis in order to grow and store the food they need.
What is energy flow in the circle of life?
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one type of energy into another. All of our energy comes from the Sun. Plants store that energy in the 'food' they make, glucose, a type of sugar, which then gets packaged into larger molecules of starch. Animals eat plants and the energy in the plants is used by the animals which eat the plants to provide the fuel for all the chemical reactions in their body. Then other animals eat the animals which eat the plants and so on and so on. So the energy comes from the Sun, is stored (and used) by plants through photosynthesis, then by organisms which eat the plants and so on.
How animals depend on plants?
Animals depend on plants for food and the reason for this is so animals can get the energy they store from the sun into their own bodies. They also depend on plants because plant's are autotrophs ( make their own food) by using and storing the sun's energy, so because us animals are hetrotrophs ( can't make our own food :S) we depend on the energy the plants have stored from the sun light.
