How do you usually use the energy stored in plants?
Plants store energy in the form of carbohydrates through photosynthesis. When animals eat plants, they break down these carbohydrates through cellular respiration to release the stored energy for their own use.
How do plants and animals release energy?
Plants release energy through the process of photosynthesis, where they convert sunlight into chemical energy stored in glucose. Animals release energy through the process of cellular respiration, where they break down glucose and other nutrients to produce ATP, the energy currency of cells.
When animals eat green plants the stored what in the plants is transformed?
in energy
What role does the sun play in making fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels wwwwwwwere once living plants and animals. If they were plants they got their energy from the sun, and if they were animals they got their energy from eating plants who got their energy from the sun, or from eating animals who ate animals who ate plants who got their energy from the sun. In other words the sun is the source of all energy. The sun´s energy is stored in living beings, in plants and the animals that eat the plants, and if conditions are right, that energy is then stored in the form of fossil fuels.
What do plants do with stored starch?
They use it for respiration to release energy.
How are the major polymers stored in plants and animals?
In plants, the major polymers (carbohydrates such as cellulose and starch) are stored in the form of starch granules in specialized plant organs like roots, tubers, and seeds. In animals, the major polymers (such as glycogen) are stored in the form of glycogen granules primarily in the liver and muscles for rapid energy release when needed.
What is respiration for in the plants?
Its to release excess energy that they have stored up.
Starch is the stored carbohydrate in plants while is the stored carbohydrate in animals?
Glycogen is the stored carbohydrate in animals just as starch is the stored carbohydrate in plants. Both serve as a source of energy when needed by the organisms.
How did the plants and animals get there energy when fossil fuels were made?
Plants obtained energy through photosynthesis by converting sunlight into chemical energy. Animals obtained energy by consuming plants or other animals that had stored energy from consuming plants. Fossil fuels were formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago and stored their energy in the form of carbon-rich compounds through natural processes.
How is energy from the plants transported from plants to animals?
Energy is stored in the chemical bonds of various molecules. The most common is called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and this molecule is transferred from the plants and can be used in the animals.
How do plants and animals get the energy they need to live?
Plants get energy by combining sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make glucose through photosynthesis. Animals get energy by consuming other organisms.
When plants and animals energy is?
When plants and animals convert energy, plants primarily harness sunlight through photosynthesis, transforming it into chemical energy stored in glucose. Animals, on the other hand, obtain energy by consuming plants or other animals, breaking down the organic molecules through cellular respiration to release usable energy. This energy transfer is essential for growth, reproduction, and maintaining metabolic functions in both groups. Ultimately, both processes are integral to the flow of energy in ecosystems.
