Yeasts are a type of fungi. As heterotrophs, yeasts obtain energy by consuming organic substances, whereas autotrophs like plants produce their own energy through photosynthesis. How does this distinction affect the way yeasts obtain energy? Yeasts produce energy through photosynthesis. Yeasts acquire energy by consuming organisms different from themselves Yeasts break down organic substances for energy. Yeasts produce energy by consuming light.

Why do autotrophs use photosynthesis? Photosynthesis produces carbon dioxide, which other plants use to make sugar. Photosynthesis absorbs oxygen from the air, which reduces the rate of climate change. Autotrophs absorb energy from the sun to make sugars for their own use. Autotrophs absorb energy from the sun to make sugars so that heterotrophs can eat them and get energy.
The antennae pigment molecules of photosynthesis reside in what structure? The reaction center The light-harvesting complex The electron transport chain The ATP Synthase
Photosynthesis takes place faster in ? yellow light red light darkness white light
During photosynthesis, low energy electrons are struck by light, bumped up to higher energy levels, and then incorporated into organic molecules. Where does the chloroplast or Cyanobacterium obtain these electrons? From carbon dioxide From sunlight From water From ATP
Plants have 3 systems for photosynthesis. Which one takes in CO2 at night, stores it, and then does its photosynthesis during the day? Group of answer choices CAM - Crassulacean acid metabolism C4 - CO2 first incorporated into a 4-carbon compound C3 CO2 first incorporated into a 3-carbon compound
Why do the cells of photosynthetic organisms contain accessory pigments? Accessory pigments provide a backup source of energy if the main pigment type fails. Accessory pigments direct light toward the primary pigment. Accessory pigments optimize the amount of energy that can be harvested in specific environments. Accessory pigments provide structural support for the primary pigments. Accessory pigments allow photosynthesis to occur at any time of the day.
Why is it necessary for cells to have a vacuole filled with water if they are photosynthetic cells? Plant cells that do no do photosynthesis, might store starch or pigments in their vacuoles. So, why is a reservoir of water essential for cells doing photosynthesis? In your answer, be sure to refer to the organelle that does photosynthesis.
How do some species manage to exist in the absence of sunlight and photosynthesis? how do you obtain energy indirectly from the food you eat?
