I guess you could say that humans get their energy indirectly through food nutrients. Food, of all sorts, contain calories, calories are energy. Humans need protein, fat and carbohydrates to live, not to mention water.

It is a known fact that a human can live only 5 days without water, but can live up to 30 days without solid food.

How do humans gain energy from plants directly and indirectly?

Humans gain energy directly from plants by eating the plants themselves in the form of fruits, vegetables, and grains. We gain energy from them indirectly by eating the meat of animals that eat plants.


Humans cannot convert the Sun's energy into glucose for themselves because humans lack?

Why transformation of energy is required?

We don't always need the energy in the form in which it appears. For example, we humans can't directly use solar energy. Not even the plants use it directly - they need to transform it first.


How does energy from the sun get used by human bodies?

Energy from the sun is eventually used by humans when we eat the carbohydrates that plants make when they use the sun's energy to synthesize carbohydrates from water and carbon dioxide, or when we eat the flesh of animals who eat the carbohydrates from plants, or if we eat the flesh of animals who eat other animals who eat carbohydrates from plants.


How is the energy from the sun passed to humans?

Energy from the sun is captured by plants through photosynthesis. When humans consume plant-based foods, they obtain the energy stored in those plants. By eating a balanced diet, humans can indirectly harness the sun's energy for their own use through the food chain.
