There are three main sources of heat in the deep earth: (1) heat from when the planet formed and <span>accreted</span>, which has not yet been lost; (2) frictional heating, caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet; and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements.

What do you notice about how plants get their energy in a DESERT ECOSYSTEM?

Nikitich [7]

Desert plants work hard to make use of what's available. They use the sun's energy to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) into sugar, a process called photosynthesis. During this process, stomata on a plant's leaves and stems open to absorb carbon dioxide from the air and in return release oxygen. :)
