In ecosystems, plants transform light energy from the Sun into chemical energy when they make sugar. This sugar can then be consumed by other organisms to be used as building blocks for other molecules, such as proteins and fats, or it can be transformed into other forms of energy, such as kinetic energy, when the organism moves.

Which of the following statements is supported by the above information?

A.
Matter and energy must always remain in the same form and location.
B.
Energy can change forms, but only one kind of matter exists.
C.
Matter can change forms, but only one kind of energy exists.
D.
Matter and energy can change forms and locations in ecosystems.

Respuesta :

The answer is D matter and energy shown in the question can change forms and is transferred to other locations for organisms to be used as building blocks for others.

The Matter and Energy are transferred from one form to another in an Ecosystem.

In the given information, light energy become energy then into Kinetic energy, and sugar become proteins and fats because it moved from the sun to the plant and to other organisms.

The correct statement is D that the matter and energy can change forms and locations in ecosystem.

Reason of change forms of matter and energy

It is important to notice that although matter and energy can change forms and locations in an ecosystem, the entire amount of matter and energy should remain an equivalent according to the law of conservation of matter and energy.

Thus, the option D is the correct statement that the matter and energy can change forms and locations in an ecosystem.
