without energy things cant run and then it means nothing can exist. it is likedomino's eg- humans need trees etc. and down the line. so if every tree died every human would eventually die. Energy is a huge part of the earth. just by the wind blowing there is power, wind power. just by the sun shining, solar power. don't waste the energy we do have or we will all die from global warming.

∙ 13y agoLiving organisms are comprised of cells that carry out numerous functions such as DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis, cell division, organelle and cell membrane synthesis, and many, many more. On the simplest level, all of these activities are performed by "machines" made of protein and nucleic acid. Like other machines, they require energy (ultimately in the form of ATP) to function.

∙ 14y agoEnergy is required for cells to perform many functions. Enzymes convert substrates into products but must do so against the activation energy (so energy is needed here). Cellular respiration requires some amount of energy to occur. The most important energy consumer is the Na+/K+ ATPase ion pump which is responsible for maintaining cellular gradients and consumes approximately 50% of the energy of the cell.
Muscle cells (myocytes) use ATP (an energy-storing molecule) in the actin-myosin interaction required for muscle contraction.
Nerve cells (Neurons or glia depending where you are in the body) use ATP to propogate signals so that they can transmit and receive signals.

How do non living environment affect living things?
The non living environment provides nutrition and protection for living things.
Why do living things exhale carbon dioxide?
because they can When living things respire (breathe) - they use O2 and CO2 is one of the products of the reaction which produces energy (respiration). CO2 is toxic in moderate concentrations, and so it is exhaled.
Are rocks living things or non living things?
Rock has no life. So it is consider as non living thing.
Are vines a living thing?
Yes, vines are plants, so they are living things. Biotic refers to living things.
Is energy the most important characteristic in living organisms?
Energy is the ultimate Truth. It is not inanimate. It is so lively with intelligence. So energy is the most important characteristic in living organism as well as nonliving things. The whole cosmic dance is only due to the energy and due to its conversion from one form into the other. If such conversion is to the maximum utilisation to the human then we term that as most economical. If such conversion is bringing peace over all then it is termed as political. (don't consider present politics. It is not at all politics. It is totally a loot) If such a conversion is highly distributive then it is social If such a conversion is well understood then it is science. If such a conversion is fully realized then it is wisdom If such a conversion is witnessed then it is enlightenment.
What is the impact energy has on the environment?
all living things require energy so no energy, no environment
Why is the Ozone important to living things?
so you can live
Why do all living things need to produce energy?
So they can get energy and there bond don't get weak . I think .
Why do living things need energy and where do they get it?
Living things need energy to do stuff like grow, breathe, walk around, dress themselves, sleep, procreate and do their homework. They get it by eating or by soaking up soil and sunlight. If they don't, they soon cease to be living things, and they no longer need to worry about energy.
Why is the element so important to living things?
Because Carbon is in everything.
Why is oxygen so important to living things?
Oxygen is important because it permits us to live
How do king penguins get its energy?
Well, for living things, calories generate energy, so basically it is from eating fish.
What differentiate living from non living things?
living things contain DNA in the cell nucleus, so they grow, repair, reproduce. They also carry out respiration (conversion of food into energy)
How does living things get energy?
plants gain energy from the sun during photosynthesis, this energy is then passed on to insects as they consume the plants, then a bird will eat the insect and so on. But energy is lost at each stage of consumption as movement, heat and in faeces. so in order for living things to get enough energy they must consume more. See a pyramid of Biomass for this process.
Why is nitrogen so important to living things?
is important because animals don't us nitrogen and they don't make it
How are frogs important to other living things?
i think frogs are important to other living things because they eat the insects so the insects won't give us disease that's all what i knowthank you!!!
Living things depend on energy from?
All living things depend on energy from the sun. Even though animals get their energy from either plants or from animals that eat plants, those plants get their energy from the sun, so it all comes back to the sun.
