All living organisms eventually dir. Their bodies are composed of complete compounds like carbohydrates, lipids and proteins that they stored when they were alive. Two groups of organisms called the decomposers and detritivores obtain the food or energy from the remains of the dead organsims. As they feed on the dead organisms they cause their decay or devomposition. They help in the recycling of nutrients since they return the nutrients trapped in the dead organisms back to the environment. The nutrients become available again to living organism.

What type of energy is stored in the bodies of organisms?
Thermal energy is stored inside any living organisms because of their body heat
What happens to dead organisms and waste products?
When organisms die decomposers, decompose them and then they get stored back into the soil given as nutrients.
Organisms that depend on the food energy stored in other living organisms?
parasites
How is solar energy stored in living organisms?
Living organisms have the ability to store energy in many different forms. To store solar energy, living organisms create carbohydrates for their storage needs.
The energy stored in compounds and released in reactions is what kind of energy?
chemical energy
What are organisms that used energy from the sun or energy stored in chemical compounds to manufacture their own nutrients?
Plants! :D
What are the two ways that energy stored in dead organisms is used?
Energy stored from dead organisms can be used in two ways. They can either be eaten by other organisms or decomposed by bacteria with the nutrients absorbed in the soil to be used by plants.
The process by which the chemical bond energy stored in nutrients is released for use in cells?
Photosynthesis :) ^_^
How do organisms utilized the stored energy from green plants?
how do organisms utilize the stored energy from green plants
What happened with the stored energy as it transfer from one organisms with another?
Energy in organisms primarily comes from carbohydrates, some may also be contributed from lipids and proteins. When an organism is consumed the different nutrients are absobed into the body which are then used in respiration to release the energy
What type of energy is stored in the bodies of organisms?
Thermal energy is stored inside any living organisms because of their body heat
In what form do organisms store energy?
Organisms primarily store energy in the form of chemical bonds. This energy is stored in molecules such as ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and carbohydrates like glucose. When needed, these molecules can be broken down and the energy stored in their bonds can be released and used by the organism.
By process do all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of glucose?
Glycolysis is the process that all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of glucose.
Can energy be stored and released?
Yes, energy can be stored in many forms and released again.
What process do all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of?
Cellular respiration is the process by which all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of glucose.
What do plants use the sun's energy to manufacture?
for they can grow with green leafs.{I AM RIGHT O YEA}
How is stored chemical energy released?
It is stored in bonds and released in energy. Energy is needed to break the chemical bonds, and energy is released when bonds are broken.
