No, they get their energy from a process called photosynthesis. It converts the sun's rays into energy that is spread throughout the plant. The only plant that could gain energy from an animal is a venus fly trap, and others like it, as they would digest the proteins as energy.

β 12y agoBy eating the plants, or by eating the herbivores that eat the plants. The glucose that the chloroplasts make goes to the respiratory process of primary or secondary consumers where it is, ultimately, turned into energy encapsulated in ATP.

β 11y agoPlants are self feeding through the process of photosynthesis. You dont see plants get up and eat or trap their food, they transform the sun's energy into glucose and other sugars through photosynthesis and also, cellular respiration.
Edited answer: Almost all green plants make their own food, exceptions are partial parasites like sandalwood plant depending partially on other plants or total parasites like dodder depending totally on its host.

Two different ways organisms acquire energy?
plants receive energy from the sun and water and convert it using the process of photosynthesis.mammals acquire energy from activities such as eating, drinking and sleeping.by either consuming other organisms or making its own food
What are all organisms made of?
All organisms are made of cells.
What is is similar among all living organisms on Earth?
All living organisms on Earth use DNA as their genetic material.All living organisms use cellular metabolism to obtain and use energy.All living organisms have some form of response to external stimuli.All living organisms undergo reproduction.All living organisms are made up of one or more cells, the basic unit of life.

Least comlex to most complex?

Is a cat an organism?
Yes, a cat is an organism. Everything living such as animals, people and plants are organisms because they all use energy, have cells, reproduce, grow, and have DNA.
Three ways for organisms to get energy?
chemical energy, mechanical energy, and electrical energy
Why is there no chloroplasts in animal cells?
Animals are chemoheterotrophic organisms. They obtain energy and carbon through other organisms.
Where does the glucose in animal cells ocme from?
Animals get the glucose in their cells through plants. They obtain the glucose by eating the plants and absorbing their glucose and energy.
How do organisms use up energy?
The process of living uses energy, eating, hunting, keeping warm, making new cells etc.
How plant and animal cells obtain energy?
obtain energy from nucleas
The cells of organisms use energy for growth and repair?
Yes, it is true the cells of organisms use energy for growth and repair.
What are some types of organisms that work together to obtain resources?
All organisms must obtain and use energy to stay alive.
How do cells obtain energy from the sun?
Green plant cells change light energy into chemical energy.
What activities make plant and animal cells different in how they obtain energy?
One of the ways that plant and animal cells differ in how they obtain energy is the chloroplasts in plants. Plants take visible light, mostly red and blue, however they do take some green light waves, in through their chloroplasts, and do photosynthesis with the energy that they have attained from the sunlight. Plants are autotrophes; meaning they obtain their energy from abiotic sources, such as sunlight or inorganic chemicals. Animals are heterotrophs; meaning they obtain their energy and nutrients by consuming other organisms. I hope that helps!
What is the process in Which cells obtain energy with out using energy?
anaerobic respirartion
How do eukaryotic cells get energy?
Eukaryotic cells obtain energy through the consumption of organic compounds or photosynthesis.
What are the main energy energy stores in the most organisms?
fat cells
