What basic unit of food is used for energy and growth?
The sun provides light energy which plants use to convert in to chemical energy through photosynthesis. Nutrients from the soil also assist in growth of plants. Animals rely completely on these green plants for their energy. Green plants produce chemical energy (food energy).
Animals take in chemical energy from plants and other animals and convert it to what?
Animals convert chemical energy from their food to several forms of energy: kinetic energy (for motion) and thermal energy (for heat). They also store some of this energy still in the form of chemical energy.
What do plants do with the energy?
The plants turn the energy into food that they can eat.
How does sunlight provide energy to all organisms?
The only organisms that can directly convert sunlight into energy are plants. Plants intake solar light and, through a series of complex chemical reactions, produce food and stored energy. This energy travels along the food chain as plants are eaten by animals, and animals by other animals. However, as each organism consumes the one before it, only about 10% of consumed organism's energy is transferred.
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 Organelles in plants that convert light energy to food during photosynthesis are?
Chloroplasts convert light energy to food during photosynthesis in plants.
What organelles in plants convert light energy to food during photosynthesis are?
Chloroplasts convert light energy to food during photosynthesis in plants.
How do plants convert food back into energy?
Through cellular respiration.
Why are plants considered the primary producers in the ecosystem?
Plants convert solar energy (the primary energy source in the environment) into food and fuel.
What is the kind of energy is needed by plants to convert the raw materials into food?
solar
Most plants and animals require food and oxygen to live. Plants and animals primarily use the oxygen to convert their food into?
energy
What uses energy from sunlight to make energy-rich food?
Technically, everything-we all get all of our energy from the sun. Plants convert the energy into food that we consume directly, or indirectly through the animals that eat the plants. We gain the energy from eating the plants or the animals.
Do plants convert the energy of sunlight into carbon dioxide and water?
No. (This is just a bad multiple choice distractor.)Plants convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and oxygen using the energy of sunlight.
Green plants use what kind of energy during photosynthesis?
The Green plants convert solar energy into chemical energy and with the help of cholorophyll they produse their food.
What is form is energy stored in at the end of photosynthesis?
Chemical energy
Who are the consumers of solar energy?
Plants are the primary consumers of the sun's energy. Plants convert the energy into food for themselves and other creatures. Animals eat the plants, thereby transferring their energy to the animal. A plant that produces its own food by using the sun's energy is called an autotroph.
Why do animals eat but not plants?
Plants are autotrophic. They internally convert energy into food. The act of eating (moving food from the outside to the inside) is thus not neccessary.
