The sun is a source of energy but we cant use it for ourselves other than staying warm. the main source of energy for most living things are nucleic acids, they send chemical reactions to the body that make us who we are -Edited by Jordan R.

Do the autotrophic cells in either plants or animals?
Only plants can be autotrophic (using light or chemical energy as their energy source). Animals are all heterotrophic.
What is the source of energy for primary producer?
Solar Energy. Without it, all living things will die. With solar energy, we have vegetation, for animals to survive on. And the humans have both animals and plants to survive on therefore all living things need the Sunlight/Solar Energy to live. It is the source of energy for all producers.
How is glucose used in an ecosystem?
Carbohydrates are used as an energy source for many animals and plants. Examples: potato makes starch to store energy and animals eat them to gain the energy they need. Also sugars, which are monomers, are used by the plants as energy source by photosynthesis. Second example would be that insects use a carbohydrate called chitin which is used to build their exoskeleton.
What is original source of energy flows through a food chain?
The sun.Without the sun life on earth would soon stop because all available carbon (the basis of all life forms on Earth) would be used up.A few ecosystems get their energy partially or entirely from geothermal sources. The original source of this energy is radioactive decay heat from isotopes in the crust, mantle, and core.Both the sun and earth were formed from matter ejected and/or compressed by supernova explosions. So the original source for both the energy from the sun and from radioactive decay heat was supernovas.Ultimately the original source of all energy was the Big Bang.
What is the significance of starch polysacchride?
Storage of food in plants. As starch is insoluble and compact, it is the most ideal form for storage in plants. For animals, starch is a source of carbohydrate. Therefore source of energy.
The original source of energy in a food chain is from the?
The sun its so simple
What is the initial energy source for desert animals?
The energy source is the sun. Plants use solar energy to produce the foods they need for growth. Animals feed on the plants or feed on animals that eat plants.
What is main source of energy?
Plants,animals,water
How is plants and animals renewable source of energy?
it is not renewable
What is the original source for most of the energy in the planet?
The sun, or plants
Animals get energy from the food they eat What is the original source of this energy?
The Sun.
What is the most important source of energy for animals and plants?
The sun
Why is the sun considered to be original source of most energy resources?
because plants get their energy from it and everything else gets their energy from plants
What is the main source of energy for plants and animals?
ATP is an immediate source of energy for animals and all living things.
Do the autotrophic cells in either plants or animals?
Only plants can be autotrophic (using light or chemical energy as their energy source). Animals are all heterotrophic.
How do plants and animals get carbohydrates to use for energy?
Only as an energy source, it requires amino acids for animals to make proteins.
The original source of energy in your food is?
ecosystemIn most food webs the Sun is the ultimate source of energy.
