Answer:

Sun

Sun is the main source of energy on earth. About 40% light reach to the atmosphere some of which is filtered by ozone layers, water vapours and other gases. only 1% light is used in photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis

Producers contain chloroplast filled with chlorophyll molecules. when sunlight falls on leaves process of photosynthesis occurs which convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

Respiration

Respiration occurs both in producers and consumers. in this process chemical energy (glucose) is converted into ATP, NADH and FADH2.

Decomposition

there are some organisms known as decompose s. they decompose dead bodies of plants and animals and convert complex molecules into simple nutrients with help of energy. in this way sun light energy is transferring in ecosystem in different forms.

Describe the mutation in a plant that could have a negative outcome for the organism

iris [78.8K]

A mutation in a plant that could cause negative outcomes could be the plant has less leaves, or isn't hardy enough, like other plants. It would die. A plant from an area like Chernobyl, that has been affected by radiation could poison other animals, or pass that gene along, and ultimately kill that strand of plant.
