Study Notes

Energy and Living Things

  • Living things, such as hummingbirds, need energy to survive and perform daily activities like flying.
  • Energy from the Sun is called solar energy.

How Plants Get Energy

  • Plants make their own food using energy from the Sun, water, and air.
  • This process allows plants to survive, grow, and produce new plants, flowers, or fruits.
  • Plants store some of the energy they produce in their cells, which can be used when the Sun is not shining.

How Animals Get Energy

  • Animals cannot make their own food and must get energy by eating other organisms or plants.
  • When animals eat plants or other animals, energy is transferred from the food source to the animal.
  • Not all energy from a plant is transferred to an animal that eats it; some energy is used by the plant for its survival.

Experiment: How Light Affects Plant Growth

  • An experiment was conducted to compare the growth of grass seedlings in light and dark conditions.
  • The results of the experiment can help us understand how light affects plant growth.

Key Concepts

  • Energy is essential for the survival and growth of living things.
  • Plants get energy from the Sun, water, and air to make food.
  • Animals get energy by eating plants or other animals, transferring energy from one organism to another.
