The Energy Required for Life Processes Must Be Extracted from an Organism's

Question

The energy required for life processes must be extracted from an organism's
A)nucleus.
B)environment.
C)predators.
D)biosynthesis.

Accepted Answer

Organisms obtain energy from their environment through processes such as photosynthesis or consumption of other living or nonliving material. The nucleus primarily oversees cellular functions and does not directly provide energy. Predators may consume other organisms for energy, but that does not apply to the organism's own energy requirements. Biosynthesis refers to the creation and synthesis of molecules within an organism, which requires energy input but does not necessarily provide energy for life processes.
