False from what i understand heterotrophs are animals and animals get their energy from other animals/ plants. Autotrophs are the ones that convert solar energy in to chemical energy through photosynthesis
chemical energy is stored energy in a chemical itself. OR energy stored in chemical bonds of molecules
Chemical energy comes from the movement of atoms and molecules in matter. Chemical energy comes from the movement of atoms and molecules in matter.
Photosynthesis is where autotrophic organisms convert light to chemical energy to get energy
Yes, molecules have potential energy stored in their chemical bonds.
Animals convert chemical energy from their food to several forms of energy: kinetic energy (for motion) and thermal energy (for heat). They also store some of this energy still in the form of chemical energy.

Chloroplasts convert sunlight into potential energy. The energy is then converted into the chemical energy in the glucose molecules.
by eating other animals
convert some of it to electrical energy
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll molecules which absorb the sun's energy and convert it to chemical energy which can be used to fuel chemical reactions in the cell.
Within the leaves of plants, there is a layer of cells below the upper epidermis called the palisade parenchyma. Within this layer are structures called chloroplasts. Within the chloroplasts are molecules called reaction centers, which contain the only type of molecules that can convert light energy into chemical energy. The process of converting light energy into chemical energy (ATP) is called photophosphorylation.
chemical bonds and organic molecules. respectively.
It form chemical energy i.e. ATP (Adenosine Tri-phosphate)
Chloroplast convert light energy. Mitochondria convert chemical energy itself
To create energyThey obtain both carbon and energy from photosynthesis. They store them in glucose molecules
chemical energy is stored energy in a chemical itself. OR energy stored in chemical bonds of molecules
