No. The energy of the sun is derived from nuclear fusion, proportionate to the difference in mass of the old and newly created atom(s).

What source of energy do organisms use that dont use the sun's energy?

Some types of organisms rely on the energy stored in the inorganic checmical compounds.


Is sunlight inorganic?

Sunlight itself is not considered organic or inorganic, as it is a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun. It is not composed of organic molecules that contain carbon-hydrogen bonds, like those found in living organisms.


Where does the energy come from that starts a food web?

The sun is the source of all energy in a food web. The primary producers - plants - use the sun's energy to produce organic compounds. Some producers eg micro-organism use inorganic chemical reactions to produce energy


Where do producers get most of their energy?

Producers get most of their energy from the sun through a process called photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, plants and algae convert sunlight into chemical energy, which is then used for growth and metabolism. Some producers, like certain bacteria, can also get energy from inorganic compounds through a process called chemosynthesis.


Do animal get energy from the sun?

Indirectly. All animals are heterotrophs, meaning they do not use the sun to convert inorganic molecules into sugars. Plants do this, and animals eat plants or other animals that have eaten plants.


State TWO characteristics of producers in a food web?

producers harness the energy from the sun or from chemical reactions and fix inorganic carbon in the form of carbohydrates.


Photosynthetic bacteria obtain energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules?

Yes, photosynthetic bacteria use a process called anoxygenic photosynthesis to obtain energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules. This process allows them to generate ATP and reduce electron carriers to create a proton gradient for ATP synthesis.


Does all chemical energy come from the sun?

No, sunlight (like any other light or radiation) is NOT a reaction (only specific compounds or elements might 'react' with each other).


Do organisms get their energy though inorganic matter?

No.


From what other source can organisms draw energy?

Basically, there are two types of organisms: AUTOTROPHS & HETEROTROPHS. Autotrophs: These basically consist of the plants.They derive their energy from the sun by a system called photosynthesis. This energy helps provide them with what is required to survive. Heterotrophs: These are the animals that feed on themselves as well as on plants. They derive their energy from the plants. They get a lower level of energy at each stage of consumption.


Is energy an organic or inorganic compound?

Energy is not a compound, it is a property of matter and has no chemical structure. Different types of energy exist, such as kinetic, potential, and thermal energy, which are related to the motion or position of objects. Organic and inorganic compounds are chemical substances made up of specific elements.


Where do chemosynthetic get there energy?

The oxidation of inorganic molecules or methane.
