Plants use some of the energy they produce from photosynthesis for their own growth and reproduction, so all of the energy they are able to gain from the sun cannot be passed on to the animals that eat plants because they use some of it themselves.

How does the suns energy get into wood and other biomass fuels?

The sun's energy is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis, where they convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar) using sunlight. This glucose is then used as energy for growth and stored in the form of biomass in plants such as wood. When wood is burned as a fuel, the stored energy is released as heat and light.
