Defend the following statement A lion gets its energy from the sun?
This statement is not accurate. Lions are heterotrophs, which means they obtain energy by consuming other organisms, primarily through hunting and eating meat. They do not have the ability to directly convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis, like plants do.
What is an indirect source of energy for a lion?
An indirect source of energy for a lion is the grass and plants that herbivores consume. When lions hunt and eat these herbivores, they obtain the energy stored in the plants. Therefore, the energy originally captured by plants through photosynthesis is transferred to lions indirectly through the food chain.
Is a lion an autotroph?
No, a lion is not an autotroph. Lions are heterotrophs, meaning they obtain energy by consuming other organisms. Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
Where does the lion get its energy?
The lion obtains energy feeding on the zebra.
Does a lion consume energy or produce energy?
consumes it

Does a lion need energy from green plants?
A lion gets all the nutrients it need from plants indirectly by eating meat. The prey eats herbs and digests it into nutrients which goes into their muscles, the lion then hunts the prey and eats the muscle and gains the nutrition from the plants they ate.
Is a lion an autotroph?
No, a lion is not an autotroph. Lions are heterotrophs, meaning they obtain energy by consuming other organisms. Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
How does DDT get from the body of a mother sea lion into the body of her pup after the pup is born?
DDT, which is a toxic pesticide, transfers from a mother sea lion to a pup through nursing. Even if the pup is not directly exposed to the DDT, it can be indirectly exposed through its mother's milk.
Where does the lion get its energy?
The lion obtains energy feeding on the zebra.
How might the change in energy content of the sea lion's prey affect the body size of the sea lion?
A decrease in the energy content of the sea lion's prey could lead to reduced growth rates and smaller body sizes in sea lions, as they may struggle to obtain sufficient calories for maintenance and development. Conversely, if prey energy content increases, sea lions might experience enhanced growth and larger body sizes due to the availability of more energy for foraging, reproduction, and overall health. Ultimately, fluctuations in prey energy directly influence the nutritional intake and physical condition of sea lions.
How are the zebra and lion dependent on photosynthesis?
Zebras depend on photosynthesis indirectly as they consume vegetation that undergoes photosynthesis to obtain energy. Lions, as carnivores, depend on photosynthesis through the food chain, as they consume herbivores like zebras that rely on plants for energy. Overall, photosynthesis is essential for providing the energy source that sustains the entire ecosystem and food chain.
How organisms in a food web dependent from a nother?
An organism is any living thing. Not all organisms eat food. Plants convert light to energy and take in water and nutrients through their roots. Animals ingest. Fungi use a root like system to obtain food.becouse it is important to the food chain
What comes first on an energy pyramid a lion or vulture?
a lion is before a vulture on a energy pyramid
Write out one food chain?
A grass grows and lives, thanks to the sun, water, and many other factors. Zebras need to eat grass to obtain energy. Lions need to eat zebras to obtain energy. [ Grass ] -> [ Zebra ] -> [ Lion ]
Tell you about hetrotrophs?
Heterotrophs is an organisms that obtain energy from foods that they eat. For example, a lion, zebra or other animal are Heterotrophs because they get energy from another livings things. Like flowers, or any plants that animals eat transfer plants energy to their energy. I learned in Biology class.
