How potential and kinetic energy have been used by the planet and living organisms?
Potential energy and Kinetic energy are used by the planet by our orbit. Earth has Gravitational potential energy and so do the other planets. When a bigger object with a gravitational field comes close to a planet or rock it is pulled into the field. The planet keeps wanting to go straight, but the field keeps it in orbit. Therefore the planet is always using potential and kinetic energy to stay in orbit.
EDIT:
Potential is the energy inside matter when it is not moving, and kinetic is inside when it is moving. For example; if a boulder is sitting on a cliff, it is potential. Then it falls and goes down. It is moving, so it is not kinetic. Then it stops moving, and it is potential again. So the Earth is moving, using the kinetic energy. Some of the life forms(like a person sitting doing nothing) on Earth are potential. The energy flow through living organisms starts with sunlight and photosynthesis, then travels through the food chain in bite sized chunks. Primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and decomposers are all part of the food chain.

What has energy?
Energy is the capacity to do work or cause change. It can exist in various forms such as kinetic, potential, thermal, or chemical energy. Energy is essential for all processes in the universe, including the functioning of living organisms and technological systems.
Living things have kinetic energy and nonliving things have no energy?
non-living things also have kinetic energy if you are seeing it from the side when it is moving. As, the internal parts of the car work together which is nothing but kinetic energy which makes the car move. But it does not make any difference even if you sit inside the car
The primary source of energy for living organisms?
The primary source of energy for living organisms is the sun. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants and other photosynthetic organisms convert sunlight into chemical energy stored in the form of glucose, which is used by all living things as a source of fuel for cellular processes.
Does a rock get energy?
Rocks themselves do not possess energy in the way that living organisms do. However, rocks can store potential energy if they are positioned at an elevated height and have the ability to release this energy when they fall or move.
What does energy give us...?
gives us energy (light)
Is energy biotic?
Energy itself is not considered biotic. Biotic factors refer to living organisms, while energy can be classified as either potential or kinetic. Living organisms can store, use, and transfer energy, but the energy itself is not considered living.
What forms of energy are required by all living things all the time?
potential and kinetic
How is potential and kenetic energy different?
Potential energy is the energy in which you have when you are standing or sitting still. Though doesn't have to be completely still, to be at least still and trying not to move, a majority of your energy is Potential. Kinetic energy is the energy of any and all living things. So, if you are moving, you have a majority of Kinetic energy. If you are being still, then you have Potential energy.

Where do living things transform kinetic energy into potential chemical energy?
Potential energy is basically energy that can be used, but it is not yet in affect. Living organisms transform this kinetic energy within their cell. Plants use their Chloroplasts, it's an organelle used in photosynthesis, essentially it turns sunlight (radiant energy), water and Carbon Dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen. Animals (such as humans) then use these two things to live and reproduce, the only difference is that we're not plants, therefore we don't have chloroplats, we use mitochondria to form energy called ATP. Both ATP and the charbohydrates from photosynthesis are chemical energy.
How do living organisms use food?
Living organisms use food for energy. Without energy, no living organism can do anything.
The primary source of energy for living organisms?
The primary source of energy for living organisms is the sun. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants and other photosynthetic organisms convert sunlight into chemical energy stored in the form of glucose, which is used by all living things as a source of fuel for cellular processes.
What release energy?
Nuclear reactions, chemical reactions, and mechanical processes like falling objects releasing potential energy as kinetic energy are examples of processes that release energy.
Does a rock get energy?
Rocks themselves do not possess energy in the way that living organisms do. However, rocks can store potential energy if they are positioned at an elevated height and have the ability to release this energy when they fall or move.
Organism have the potential to reproduce?
all living organisms
What are the two main forms of energy that power living systems?
Sunlight and energy stored in inorganic chemical compounds
