What else can I help you with?
Infer how the energy used by many living things on earth can be traced back to sunlight.?
Many living things can be traced back to sunlight because plants uses sunlight for energy, animals eats that plant getting that energy, than a human eats that animal getting all the energy.
Why isn't the oxygen in the earths atmosphere used up by the breathing of humans and other animals?
It is constantly being replenished by plants, from the giant 100mtr trees to the tiny algae. These plants convert, by photo-synthesis, the carbon-dioxide breathed out by animals back into oxygen in the atmosphere.
How is the carbon cycle related to a food web?
Carbon dioxide is used by plants to form glucose, which is like special food that plants make for themselves using light energy from the sun, water, and carbon dioxide (CO2). They get this carbon dioxide from organisms that use respiration instead of photosynthesis. During respiration, cells take in oxygen, and CO2 is left as an end product. The plants then use this carbon dioxide during photosynthesis with an end product of oxygen. It goes on and on in a never ending carbon cycle. Without plants there would be no animals, and if their were too many plants or too many animals that wouldn't work in a food chain either. Sorry if THAT doesn't answer your question. :)
What word is used to describe caring for our natural resources such as air water soil minerals fuels plants and animals by using them carefully that we will have them now and in the future?
Conservation
How were decisions usually made in aboriginal culture?
Type your answer here... They were made according to the "LORE" of the country. The "LORE" comes from ancient ancestral beings who sung the songs of country, man/women/humans , animals and plants were created from these songs. This set of "LORE" was then used as a set of guidelines for Elders to pass onto children. There is one set of "LORE" for each country and that is what is passed on. You cant ever change "LORE" to suit a situation.
How is the energy of the sun transferred to animals and man?
By consuming plants that have used the sun's energy and turned it into food or by consuming animals that have consumed plants...or by consuming animals that have consumed animals that have eaten plante etc.
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.
Which do you think lived first -- plants or animals. why do you think so?
No "thinking" required here: plants preceded animals by eons. The reason is energy. Plants store it; animals burn it up. The processes are called synthesis (photosynthesis, if the energy is in the form of light) and respiration. Stored energy has to be built up before it can be used. Animals get that energy from plants by eating them.
What is energy flow in the circle of life?
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one type of energy into another. All of our energy comes from the Sun. Plants store that energy in the 'food' they make, glucose, a type of sugar, which then gets packaged into larger molecules of starch. Animals eat plants and the energy in the plants is used by the animals which eat the plants to provide the fuel for all the chemical reactions in their body. Then other animals eat the animals which eat the plants and so on and so on. So the energy comes from the Sun, is stored (and used) by plants through photosynthesis, then by organisms which eat the plants and so on.
Which animals use photosynthesis as a means of obtaining energy?
No animals use photosynthesis as a means of obtaining energy. Photosynthesis is a process used by plants, algae, and some bacteria to convert sunlight into energy. Animals obtain energy by consuming plants, other animals, or other organic matter.
What is the function of carbohydrates in plants and animals?
Carbohydrates serve as a primary source of energy for both plants and animals. In plants, carbohydrates produced during photosynthesis provide energy for growth and reproduction. In animals, carbohydrates from food are broken down into glucose, which is used for energy production in cells.
How does energy from the sun get used by human bodies?
Energy from the sun is eventually used by humans when we eat the carbohydrates that plants make when they use the sun's energy to synthesize carbohydrates from water and carbon dioxide, or when we eat the flesh of animals who eat the carbohydrates from plants, or if we eat the flesh of animals who eat other animals who eat carbohydrates from plants.
What role do carbohydrates play in the survival of animals and plants?
Carbohydrates are used as an energy source for plants. They become crucial after a long hard winter where photosynthesis has not taken place. In this case, the plants rely on carbohydrate stores to provide the energy they need to produce new growth.
What is the impact of animals in the ecosystem?
Animals take the energy from plants, reprocess it, and transfer it into chemical, mechanical, and thermal energy. And after the animals die, the energy they stored is broken down by tiny organisms, absorbed into the soil, and then used by plants to grow. The circle of life.
How do plants make energy not photosynthesis for the world?
you can burn plants, and fire can be used to boil water to run a turbine. with photosynthesis: photosynthesis makes glucose, which is used for energy in animals and people that eat the plants
Plant and animals get energy from what?
Animals get their energy from the food that they eat. Herbivores get food from plants which produce their own food during photosynthesis. Omnivores get food from both plants and animals. On the other hands, carnivores eat other animals as food to get energy. For example: Plant >> Chicken >> Human For this food web, the energy is transferred from the plant to the chicken then to the human. But not all the energy produced by the plant is transferred. Some of the energy but used up by the chicken so only some energy are passed on to the human.
How solar energy is used by animals?
They eat the plants that absorbed solar energy too . They warming their bodies in sun.
