1. 8.L.5.1
Summarize how food provides the energy and the molecules required for building materials, growth and survival of all organisms (to include plants)

2. Food provides molecules for all organisms.
Molecules serves as fuel and building materials.
Plants make sugar (food) out of carbon dioxide and water
Food can be used for fuel

3. Food can be used immediately for
Fuel Materials Stored for future use

4. Organism that eat plants
Breaks down the plant structures to make:
Materials and Energy they need to survive
Then they are eaten by other organisms.

5. Cells
Perform many functions need to sustain life like: Grow and Divide which causes more cells to be made. Cells must have energy (nutrients) to do the work for the organism. Without nutrients the cells cannot keep organism alive. Other basic cell functions are: Releasing energy from food Getting rid of waste

6. Matter is transferred..
From organism to organism when they are eaten by other organisms for food.
To the environment when molecules from food react with oxygen to make carbon dioxide and water (this is called cellular respiration)

7. Cells Changes energy to a usable form of energy. ( Glucose to ATP)
Energy stored in ATP gives cells the means to carry out their functions such as:
Growth
Development
Repair
Locomotion
Transportation of molecules across cell membranes.

8. In plants and animals Molecules from food:
React with oxygen to provide energy that is needed to carry out life functions.
Build and become incorporated into the body structure
Are stored for later use.

9. Matter moves
Within individual organisms by a various chemical reactions where:
- food is broken down AND
- rearranged to form new molecules
Minerals and other nutrients from the soil are not food because they do not provide energy.
Plants need them Minerals & Other nutrients from soil to make complex molecules from the sugar they make.

10. Chemical energy & Matter
CE is transferred from one organism in an ecosystem to another as it interact with each other for food.
Matter is transferred/cycled between the living (biotic) and the nonliving (abiotic) parts of the ecosystem.
Energy can change from 1 form to another in living things.

11. energy can change from 1 form to another in living things.
Animals get it from oxidizing their food, releasing some of it as heat energy.
Almost all food energy comes originally from the sunlight.
