This is the sequence of events which make a ham and cheese sandwich:

  • Energy from the sun is absorbed by plants. These photosynthesise and grow using this energy. One of these plants is wheat.
  • Wheat is ground to make flour. Animals eat the other plants. These animals include pigs and cows. Eating the plants transfers the energy from the plants to the animals.
  • The ham comes from the pig. The cow produces milk, which is turned into cheese. The bread is made from the flower.

What animals cannot trace the origin of their energy back to plants?

None. Every animal either eats plants, or eats another animal that eats plants, or eats another animal that eats another animal that eats plants.


Is the energy involved in photosynthesis and cellular respiration recycled?

Solar energy is transformed into other types of energy once it is in the biological cycle. The only way it may be released is as heat energy into space. Sunlight powers photosynthesis, and the ultimate function of this stored chemical energy is as mechanical energy and waste heat.The energy that plants store may be used in cellular respiration, but never goes back to the plant. The physical materials are mostly recycled (water, carbon dioxide, and trace nutrients) because cellular respiration undoes the chemical changes of photosynthesis.


Why does an electron produce colors when exerting energy?

When an elctron is excited (has energy) it is extremely unstable, so it falls back to its previous energy level, and when it does this it releases energy, and this energy is viewed as wavelengths of light. So the color depends on the amount of energy the atom releases when it falls back to its lower energy level.


Energy transformation when dropping a yoyo?

Potential - Kinetic - Potiential again as you drop the yo yo, the potential energy it had at its height is converted to kinetic energy. as it starts to come back up, it is converted back to potential energy


How does a roller coaster convert potential energy to kinetic energy and then back to potential energy again and again?

So the potential energy is the energy in the car at the top of the first slope. It changes into kinetic energy (Speed with mass) as it rolls down the hill. Then the electric motor winds it back up the hill, putting potential energy in the system again.

Why can it be said that the sun is the source of energy for most organisms?

Uh... cause it is. The sun is the energy behind plants- it is a crucial part of photosynthesis. Look at any food chain and you can trace it back to plants. Human child eats Happy Meal consisting of fries and a burger. On the burger is lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, meat, and bread. The lettuce, tomatoes, and bread all directly go back to plants (bread is grain). The cheese and meat go back to a cow, who eats plants. The fries are potatoes, also plants.
