For Questions 13-17, write True if the statement is true. If the statement is false, change the underlined word or words to make the statement true. All heterotrophs must eat food to get energy. Autotrophs do not need to cat food because they make food. The energy in food originally came from ATP. The term photosynthesis means "pulling apart with light" in Greek. The energy of sunlight is stored in the chemical bonds of carbohydrates- Complete the table comparing two types of organisms. Suppose that you ate a hamburger on a wheat roll with lettuce, tomatoes, and onions for lunch. As you ate, you took in food molecules from plants and animals. Explain why all the energy in the food molecules of this hamburger could be traced back to the sun.Explanation / Answer
13.True
14.True
15.False . The energy in food originally came from sunlight.
16.False.The term photosynthesis means putting together with light in greek.
17.True.
18.
Carnivores such as lion, tiger or onmivores such as pigs ,mice etc.
19.Whatever food molecules we eat,provides energy whose main source is the sun.The plants first use the source of light energy from the sun to produce carbohydrates.When heterotrophs consumes plants, the energy from the plants in form of carbohydrates reaches the heterotrophs.When we consume harburger, we get the energy from both plants(lettuce, tomato,onions, wheat) and animals.(meat)Thus the energy from the sun is transferred to plants then to heterotrophs and then to us when we consume hamburger.
Type Description Examples Autotrophs- These are organisms that able to synthesize their own food taking the help of energy from the sun along with carbon dioxide and water.
- They can be either photoautotroph (using light energy) or chemoautotroph (using chemical energy).
- They occupy primary level of food chain.
- They do not possess the ability to synthesize their own food and therefore depend on plants and other animals for food.
- They can be either photoheterotroph (using light energy) or chemoheterotroph (using chemical energy)
- They occupuy secondary and tertiary level of a food chain.
