What is the difference between the sun's energy and a nuclear power plant?
The sun's energy comes from nuclear fusion reactions in its core, where hydrogen atoms combine to form helium, releasing huge amounts of energy. In contrast, nuclear power plants generate energy through nuclear fission reactions, where uranium atoms split to release energy. The sun's energy is natural and sustainable, while nuclear power plants use controlled reactions in a controlled environment.
How can you show that plants are the ultimate source of energy?
Plants are the ultimate source of energy because they undergo photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy in the form of glucose. All organisms, directly or indirectly, rely on plants for energy through the food chain. Without plants, energy transfer within ecosystems would not be possible.
How do you indirectly get energy from the sun to run a race?
All of the food we eat either comes from plants or from animals that eat plants. That food is our source of energy. That energy originated as sunlight that plants captured via photosynthesis.
What is the path of energy from the sun to you?
Energy from the sun travels through space in the form of sunlight. Plants absorb this energy through photosynthesis, converting it into chemical energy. When you consume plants or animals that have eaten plants, you obtain this energy, allowing your body to function and carry out activities.
Describe the energy changes that link sunshine to your ability to turn pages in a book?
You eat plants and plants get their energy from sunshine that gives you the energy to turn the page.
Compare and contrast the charachteristic of vascular and nonvascular plants?

Compare and contrast plants and animals?
Plants Alteration of generations Meiosis produces spores Animals Diploid Meiosis produces gametes
How do asexual and sexual reproduction in plants compare and contrast?
This is clearly homework. Wiki will not do your work for you so it is time to open your science book to find the answer.
Compare and contrast the roles of plants and animals in the flow of energy in the living world?
Generally, in the ecosystem plants function as primary producers of biological energy in the form of sugars, starches, lipids and proteins (autotrophs), while animals are the heterotrophic consumers of this production. Therefore, energy generally flows from plants to animals.
What does compare and contrast mean?
To compare and contrast two things means to find the similarities and differences between them. For example, compare and contrast the islands of Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Both have mountains, but Hawaii has volcanos. The residents of both are American Citizens, but those in Hawaii speak English and those in Puerto Rico speak Spanish. Both are tropical islands, but the mountains in Hawaii are tall enough to have some temperate zone plants.
What are some flowerless plants?
Compare and contrast flowering and flowerless seed plants
What percent of canada's energy is nuclear?
About 15 percent of the energy produced in Canada is derived from nuclear power plants. In contrast, about 61 percent of the energy produced in Canada is derived from hydroelectric power plants.
Compare and contrast bryophytes and tracheophytes?
bryophytes are non vascular plants, they are small and are ecologically persistant, these plants do not form xylem tissue ever tracheophytes are vascular plants, and are composed of xylem and pholem tissues, they are seedless plants and are the very dominant land plants including trees and flowering plants.
What does compar and contrast mean?

Both are tropical islands, but the mountains in Hawaii are tall enough to have some temperate zone plants.
Compare and contrast producers and consumers?
Producers are organisms that make their own food through photosynthesis or other reactions and are a food source for other organisms (e.x. plants, extremophile benthos communities). Consumers are organisms that ingest other organisms, like plants, in order to gain energy (e.x. herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, detrivores).
How do plants and animals in Switzerland compare to the plants and animals compare to California?
there r thins on the plants here like jerms
Does this explain that why animals have have to eat but plants don't?
Yes, animals need to eat because they are heterotrophs, meaning they obtain energy by consuming other organisms. In contrast, plants are autotrophs, capable of photosynthesis, which allows them to convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into energy and nutrients. This fundamental difference in how they obtain energy explains why animals must eat while plants do not.
