How did plants and animals get there energy 350 million years ago?
Plants at that time obtained energy through photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy. Animals would then consume these plants or other animals in order to obtain energy through the process of cellular respiration, breaking down organic molecules to release energy for metabolism. This ecosystem fueled the biodiversity and evolution of life during that period.
