Transformation occurs first in a coal-burning power plant is Chemical energy to thermal energy.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Coal-burning power plants produce power by consuming coal in an evaporator to deliver steam. The steam delivered, under gigantic weight, streams into a turbine, which twists a generator to make power. The steam is then cooled, dense once again into water and came back to the evaporator to begin the procedure once again.

The combustion of coal releases a energy which is a chemical energy and as it releases electricity due to high temperature , the first transformation occurring in coal burning power plant is chemical to thermal energy.

Living and nonliving things in an ecosystem interact with each other; on the other hand, plants use energy from the sun.

Explanation:

The ecosystem is an interaction circumstance between the living and non - living things which exists in an environment and has an impact on its too. The essential source of energy to this ecosystem is the solar energy coming from the sun.

But the energy from the sun could only be taken up by the plants and being used in photosynthesis to produce food and oxygen which required by other living things of the ecosystem. This essentiality is exclusive of the plants.

All organisms must perform life-sustaining metabolic processes in order to survive.

Alik [6]

Explanation:

Unicellular organisms or single celled organisms that are made up only of one cell. Hence the name.
Unicellular organisms are further divided into Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic organisms
Examples of prokaryotic organisms are bacteria and Eukaryotic are protozoa and unicellular algae, however many eukaryotes are multi cellular as well.
These organisms have to carry out life sustaining metabolic processes for their survival.
These processes are metabolism, homeostasis and reproduction. Metabolism is important as it involves conversion of food into energy for cellular processes. Homeostasis for maintaining a constant internal physical and chemical conditions and reproduction is by cell division.
Multi cellular organisms as the name says unlike unicellular organisms consists of more than one cells.
Examples of multi cellular organisms are animals, land plants etc.,
Metabolic process in multi cellular organisms is a broad category of processes happening for these organisms which involves chemical reactions and pathways that happen at organismal state, transporting substances between the cells.
