Living things DO carry out photosynthesis, since green plants are living things. They are not animals, if that is what you meant. Animals do not have chlorophyll, which is needed for photosynthesis.

Photosynthetic organisms are usually?

Green plants, algae, and some species of bacteria are examples of photosynthetic organisms. They contain chlorophyll, a pigment that enables them to convert sunlight into energy through the process of photosynthesis. These organisms play a crucial role in the Earth's ecosystems by producing oxygen and serving as a primary source of food for many other organisms.


What is chlorophyte?

Chlorophytes are a type of green algae that contain chlorophyll and are primarily found in freshwater environments. They play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems by producing oxygen through photosynthesis and serving as a food source for various organisms. Chlorophytes are diverse and can range from single-celled to multicellular species.


What are the first organisms to occupy a barren landscape following an event such as glacial?

The first organism in barren landscape is pioneer species.


Which of the following shows an example of organisms being classified based on their physiological abilities?

An example of organisms being classified based on physiological abilities is grouping plants into categories based on whether they perform photosynthesis using C3 or C4 pathways. This classification is based on the different physiological mechanisms these plants use to fix carbon dioxide.


Why are plants classified as basal species in the structure of a food web?

Plants are classified as basal species in a food web because they are primary producers that synthesize their own food through photosynthesis. They form the base of the food chain by providing energy for other organisms to consume. Without plants, other organisms higher in the food chain would not have a source of energy to survive.

What are protists that contain chlorophyll and can make their own food called?

Protists that contain chlorophyll and produce their own food through photosynthesis are known as algae. Algae can vary in size from microscopic unicellular organisms to large multicellular seaweeds. They play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems as primary producers.


Which level of classification has greatest similarity?

The levels of classification for all organisms is as following (from broadest to narrowest) Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. So organisms that have the same species will be most alike.


What simple organisms are able to carry on photosynthesis in each cell?

No, not all living organisms undergo photosynthesis. Only phototrophs (photosynthetic autotrophs) such as plants, algae, and many forms of photosynthetic bacteria undergo photosynthesis. All other organisms live by eating autotrophs or other organisms that have eaten autotrophs; these organisms are heterotrophs. There are a few specialized organisms (which may live where no light shines) that use a process called chemosynthesis to get their energy; these organisms are called chemotrophs.


What are the first organisms to occupy a barren landscape following an event such glacial retreat called?

Pioneer species

absolutlyThere are several species. ANAbena,Nostoc,Spirogyra, chlamedamonas are some single celled photosynthetic organisms


Which three kingdoms have members that are photosynthetic?

Plantae: Consists of all plants that are capable of photosynthesis. Protista: Includes various algae species that can perform photosynthesis. Bacteria: Some species of bacteria, such as cyanobacteria, are photosynthetic organisms.
