Which of these organisms uses energy from the sun to make its own food?
Which of these organisms uses energy from the sun to make its own food?
Tap to reveal answer
The answer is both of these.
Photosynthesis is the process where plants use energy from the sun to create their own food. This is why plants are referred to as producers. In the process of photosynthesis, the energy from sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water are converted into sugar and oxygen through chemical reactions in plant cells. Animals do not produce their own energy, but have to eat plants or other animals to stay alive. Animals breathe in the oxygen created by photosynthesis and exhale carbon dioxide as a product through their own process called cellular respiration.
