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.
Plants get their energy through photosynthesis, and animals get their energy by consuming plants or other animals.
Plants get their energy through photosynthesis, and animals get their energy by consuming plants or other animals.
Animals get their energy from other animals that have eaten plants or from plants themselves. Plants get their energy to produce sugars from the sun.
plants: sunlight for photosynthesis animals: plants, other animals
The release of energy in plants and animals food is chemical energy.
What is the difference in which in animals and plants store energy?
Plants get their energy through photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy. Animals get their energy by consuming plants or other animals. This natural process has been occurring for millions of years before the use of fossil fuels.
Yes - indirectly. We get energy from the food we eat, which comes from animals or plants; animals also get their energy from plants; and plants get the energy from sunlight.
No. Neither can plants, for that matter. Animals get the energy they need from plants, or from other animals, which they eat. Plants get their energy from the sunlight.
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.
Plants become habitats for animals by giving energy for animals
Photosynthesis gives plants energy, and when animals eat the plants, they gain energy from the plants. And, of course, when animals eat other animals, they indirectly obtain energy from the plants, which get their energy from the sun. So, the answer would be the sun.
