Why do all plants contain chloroplasts?

The function is to capture light energy which is stored in the energy storage molecules of the plant. It helps the plant to survive and thus aids in the process of food production


Where is most of a plants food made?

Food for plant is produced in chloroplasts.Photosynthesis produces food for plant.


What threats to survival of species is considered to be the most serious?

The greatest threat to most species is


Why do most plants produce many more?

It is a numbers game. Most plants produce more seeds than are likely to become adult plants BECAUSE so many seeds fail to grow to adulthood. If they did not overproduce, the species would die out. In fact, one way to measure the "effectiveness" of a plant's seeds is to look at how many it produces. Plants that produce the most seeds in comparison with the seed survival rate are those that have ineffective seeds. Plants that produce fewer seeds generally have more effective ways of ensuring that the seed survives to produce the next generation of plants. Some of the ways that plants use to increase the effectiveness of their seeds are by protecting them with shells (so that they are resistant to the weather), making them larger (so that they have a lot of stored food to give them a good start), making them taste good to birds (so they will be eaten and deposited along with fertilizer).


Most plants and animals require food and oxygen to live. Plants and animals primarily use the oxygen to convert their food into?

energy

Why are plants at the bottom of the food chain?

Plants are lower order species because they, for the most part, do not consume other life forms. By design, plants are meant to be consumed by higher order species.

Do all plants make their own food throughphotosynthesis?

Most plants use photosynthesis to create glucose, their food source. However, some plant species are parasites and feed off of others.


Do all plants have a digestive system?

Most species of plants have no digestive system; they create their own food and therefore do not have to digest anything. There do exist carnivorous plants, such as the famous Venus Fly Trap, which digest food and therefore do have a digestive system.


Where has most of the solar energy been stored?

plants & vegetation.


What type of consumers are people?

Plants are producers because they make their food, whereas people are consumers because they must consume other species as food. Most people are omnivores, meaning they eat both plants and animals.


Most potential energy captured from food molecules is stored as?

it is stored as AMP...........


Where is most of the digested food stored?

Digested food isn't really stored, it passes through the body at a steady pace.


In what form do plants store extra carbohydrates?

It is usually stored as a simple sugar known as glucose. When the food is created, the plant can either consume it right away or store it. If it consumes it, then it is starch.


What are the vast majority of living plants species?

Vascular plants consist of about 95% of all living plant species.


Where does human energy come from?

Energy of organism come from different origins. For example, plants and other photosynthetic organism make their own energy by photosynthesis. The energy from the sun is transformed into usable stored energy. On the other hand, the energy from animal comes from either the fats that's stored in their body, or glycogen that they get from they food. Look up cellular respiration. Lucky you!
