Basically, there are two types of organisms: AUTOTROPHS & HETEROTROPHS.

Autotrophs:

These basically consist of the plants.They derive their energy from the sun by a system called photosynthesis. This energy helps provide them with what is required to survive.

Heterotrophs:

These are the animals that feed on themselves as well as on plants. They derive their energy from the plants. They get a lower level of energy at each stage of consumption.

Organisms may get their energy from breaking down inorganic chemicals, breaking down organic chemicals or from the Sun.

How much work is wasted if a machine with an input of 7500Joules only works at 70 percent efficiency?

Work, or energy? The input energy is only going to be 70% of the capability of the devices' energy consumption. I believe that what is really desired here, but the structure of the question does not give this quantity, is how much loss due to inefficiency, or resistance in the machine for a given amount of input energy. The basic answer is 2150 Joules. Energy is what is available to the machine, but energy is only drawn as a result of the draw on the energy source driving the machine. To illustrate, a clothes dryer is capable of drawing 5000 watts of electrical power. Does it draw all of that power in watts every time it is turned on? No, of course not. If the dryer is set for a cycle such as air fluffing, then all the dryer will draw is enough energy in watts to make the drum turn. That is not going to anywhere near the rated 5000 watts the dryer is capable of demanding from it's power source. So, the question given is misleading. You can not put 7500 Joules of energy into a device, and make it use that amount of energy. The machine will only use what it needs to do the job it is to do, plus what it needs to over come frictional losses. Work is never lost, work is a function of what the machine does, for a given load, and it's ability to do the job asked of it. Proper use of terms leads to correct answers, while not using proper terms leads to confusion.


How do you draw a particle diagram demonstrating conduction?

You can draw a particle sequence, as in before and then another box for after. The first box showing how particles are in a solid state from close up. Then draw the second box containing a few particles hot but not yet all of them. Then draw another box titled after 15 minutes showing all of the particles hot an vibrating. if you wish you can also draw a heat source at the bottom.

Why does your car battery discharge overnight?

This can occur due to a light remaining on or some other electric device is using energy from the battery. The electrical system must be evaluated to determine the source of the parasitic draw. Typically however, if the source cannot be obtained, the battery is considered bad.

Is the process by which cells withdraw energy from glucose photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is process where organisms draw energy from the sun. (trees, flowers, etc) the formula: CO2 + H20 ------> glucose + O2 + E although it does include glucose from it.....


Why is it became colder when you release energy?

Releasing energy means particles do not vibrate as much as previously. They therefore draw on the energy from other nearby particles, who then draw from others, and so on. Eventually there is a decrease in the total vibration and therefore collective energy of all particles. Less energy equals less heat.

Why is a battery cell not a practical source of electricity?

a battery cell can only hold a charge for so long before the positive and negative charge fades away it isn't a practical source of energy because of this reason unless you have a unlimited charging source where it can continuously draw a charge from it would be pointless to use as a source if electricity
