What is the role of a plant in an ecosystem?
As photosynthesizers, plants provide organic molecules for energy (food) for the entire ecosystem. They provide oxygen as well.
What happens to energy in an ecosystem?
Energy flows through an ecosystem, starting with producers who convert sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis. This energy is then transferred through the food chain as organisms consume each other. Eventually, energy is lost as heat during metabolism and at each trophic level, limiting the amount available for higher trophic levels.
How energy lost in an ecosystem?
Heat energy
What happens when you add kinetic energy to a solid?
When you add kinetic energy to a solid the molecules won't move
What happens when the supply of energy-rich molecules in a muscle in used up?
when a supply of energy-rich molecules in a muscle is used up latic acid is produced
What describes the energy changes involved in an ecosystem?
The sun's energy is made available to an ecosystem by the plants in that ecosystem.
What happens to most of the energy in the ecosystem?
Leaves as heat.
What happens to energy as it passes through many molecules?
nothing happens
When energy is passed from organic molecules from producers to consumers what best describes this process?
pyramid of energy

What happens when you put ice cream in the refrigerator what happens to the molecules and the energy?
the molecules freeze and it turns to the freezing point
What happens to the potential of the molecules in a reaction?
the potential energy of the molecules changes during a reaction.
What happens to the energy of glucose that is not used to nake atp molecules?
The energy not used to make ATP molecules generates heat.
Which of the following statements describes the energy changes involved in an ecosystem?
Energy is transferred in an ecosystem through trophic levels, with some energy being lost as heat at each level. Producers (plants) capture energy from the sun through photosynthesis and pass it on to consumers (animals) through feeding interactions. This energy flow is essential for the functioning of the ecosystem and influences species diversity and interactions.

What happens to the energy in the ecosystem?
Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is transformed form one form to another.
What is the transfer of energy that happens when molecules bump into one another?
The transfer of energy that happens when molecules bump into one another is called heat conduction. This process occurs as high-energy molecules transfer some of their energy to lower-energy molecules through collisions, causing the overall thermal energy of the system to equalize.
