Is photosynthesis the only process that can make food?
Photosynthesis is the only process that can take inorganic carbon from the atmosphere and energy from the Sun and turn it into stored chemical energy (glucose).
How does chemoautotrophs obtain energy?
Chemoautotrophs (or chemotrophic autotroph), in addition to deriving energy from chemical reactions, synthesize all necessary organic compounds from carbon dioxide. Chemoautotrophs generally only use inorganic energy sources. Most are bacteria or archaea that live in hostile environments such as deep sea vents and are the primary producers in such ecosystems. Evolutionary scientists believe that the first organisms to inhabit Earth were chemoautotrophs that produced oxygen as a by-product and later evolved into both aerobic, animal-like organisms and photosynthetic, plant-like organisms. Chemoautotrophs generally fall into several groups: methanogens, halophiles, sulfur reducers, nitrifiers, anammoxbacteria and thermoacidophiles.
How do you use plants carbohydrate make to protein?
Only as an energy source, it requires amino acids for animals to make proteins.
Compare and contrast photosynthesis and chemosynthesis?
Chemosynthesis gets its energy from oxidation of inorganic substance, photosynthesis gets its energy from light. Chemosynthesis could occur just about anywhere there are enough suitable chemicals to oxidize [metabolize], while photosynthesis could occur only when there is sufficient light.
What movement of the substances through a cell membrane against a concentration gradient requires energy?
no because it is a form of passive transport. only active transport requires energy. facilitated diffusion just means that it cant be just absorbed through the membrane, it must go through specific chanels or be helped by transport proteins. but because facilitated diffusion moves from higher to lower concentrations, it requires no energy.
How does non conventional sources of energy differ from conventional energy sources?
Only by being unusual or used in an unusual way.
How fusion is one of your sources of energy?
Only via energy we receive from the sun
Is photosynthesis the only process that can make food?
Photosynthesis is the only process that can take inorganic carbon from the atmosphere and energy from the Sun and turn it into stored chemical energy (glucose).
Conclusion to the extra use of non-renewable sources of energy?
If humans continue to use nonrenewable sources of energy, they will eventually run out of them. This means that eventually renewable energy sources will be the only energy source.
What is the only type of cell transport that requires energy?
wwwwwwww
How can you stop energy crisis?
use renewable sources only limited
What you mean by organic and inorganic pigments?
Inorganic pigments contain only inorganic ingredients.
What are the different energy sources found in the Philippines?
The majority of the energy sources in the Philippines are only available in small amounts. Oil, coal, and natural gas are limited resources in the Philippines, but renewable energy sources like hydropower and geothermal alternatives are abundant.
How does renewable energy save money?
Energy is not renewable. The sources to make that energy may be. After the initial cost of plant and equipment some sources are practically free so the only costs are maintenance costs..
Does passive transport requires large amounts of energy?
No. only active transport does
What are the two primary energy sources that drive the food chain that feeds humans Why are two energy sources required when natural ecosystems normally only require one?
producers sun
How do plants and animals get carbohydrates to use for energy?
Only as an energy source, it requires amino acids for animals to make proteins.
