What kind of energy can be generated from the sun?

The energy that is emitted from the sun is called solar energy. Our eyes use this energy to see colour.


What kind of energy that leaves convert the sun's light energy into?

Solar panels convert the sun's light energy into electrical energy.


Do consumers get energy indirectly from the sun?

Yes, consumers indirectly get energy from the sun through various processes. The sun's energy is captured by plants during photosynthesis, converting it into chemical energy stored in the form of carbohydrates. Consumers then obtain this energy by consuming plants or other organisms that have consumed plants.


What happens to the rest of the sun's energy captured by heather?

The energy captured by heaters from the sun is primarily converted into heat, which is used to warm spaces or water. Any excess energy that isn't used for heating can be dissipated into the environment, often lost as heat through radiation, conduction, or convection. Additionally, if the system is part of a solar energy setup, excess energy can sometimes be stored in batteries or redirected to power other devices. Ultimately, the efficiency of the energy capture and conversion process determines how much of the sun's energy is effectively utilized.


What is the link between the sun and coal?

The link between the sun and coal lies in the processes of photosynthesis and fossilization. Coal is formed from ancient plant material that captured sunlight and converted it into chemical energy through photosynthesis. Over millions of years, this organic matter was buried and subjected to heat and pressure, transforming it into coal. Thus, the energy stored in coal originally comes from the sun's energy captured by plants.

How is the sun captured in photosynthesis?

it is not the sun that is captured, but the sun's energy. it is the heat and the light that "feeds" the plant. :)


How much of the energy provided by the sun and captured by other organisms is used by humans?

40 % of the energy provided by the sun and captured by other organisms is used by humans.


How is solar energy captured for the use on space station?

Solar energy from the sun is captured and converted to normal energy through the solar panels.


In photosynthesis what form of energy is being captured?

it is about the sun. It is capturing sun light.

How is energy captured and transfered in photo?

It is about pigments. they are absorbing sun light.


How energy is transferred from the sun to a producers?

The Sun produces a huge amount of energy, the amount captured by Earth based "producers" is negligible by comparison.


What kind of energy is energy from the sun?

How is electromagnetic energy from the sun captured stored and finally converted into energy in glucose?

Electromagnetic energy from the sun is captured by pigments like chlorophyll in plant cells during the process of photosynthesis. This energy is then used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose through a series of chemical reactions in the chloroplasts. The glucose produced serves as a source of energy for the plant's growth and other metabolic processes.


How does energy change from one form to another in an ecosystem?

Energy from the sun is captured by green plants and by photosynthesis it converts radiant energy from the sun into organic compounds such as glucose.


What is it energy that is captured by the chloroplast for photosynthesis?

I'm learning about this in living environment right now. Chloroplast uses the energy from the sun that is captured to make carbohydrates. Hope this helped!


How much energy is transferred from the sun to a produce?
