Question

Light energy from the sun is the primary source for all living organisms. So how does the sun provide energy for all living organisms? In this assignment, you will explain how energy from sunlight is used during photosynthesis, then how the energy is transferred to animals that cannot harness energy directly from the sun.
Your mission is to use your knowledge of photosynthesis and respiration to explain what happens during these processes and how energy is made and transferred.

Answer 1

Answer: Heat or thermal energy coming from the sun provides energy for living organisms through heat transfer. For plants light energy is absorbed by the leaves and enters the stomata which activates the thylakoids and releases amount of electrons for chemical reactions. Through light energy plants produces glucose and releases oxygen gas as a by-product of the reaction. For this process energy is formed (ATP)
