Grana
2/13

Why is the sun considered the ultimate source of energy for life on Earth?

Either photosynthetic organisms (autotrophs) organisms that have eaten them (heterotrophs) use the sun as energy for all life on Earth.
Because it is the ultimate star, and humans suck in the energy like a vaccuum.
The sun is not the ultimate source of energy, oil is.

Organisms that harvest energy from sunlight and chemicals to make food (for themselves) are called ____.

autotrophs
heterotrophs
tertiary consumers

What is the role of water in photosynthesis?

It hydrates the plants when they are thirsty (true, but don't pick this one)
