Why must animals eat food but plants do not eat food?
Answers
GPT 3.5
Animals must eat food in order to obtain the nutrients necessary for their survival and to fuel their metabolic processes. This is because animals are heterotrophic organisms, meaning they rely on consuming other organisms for their energy and nutrient requirements.
Plants, on the other hand, are autotrophic organisms that can create their own food through the process of photosynthesis. They are able to convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into sugars and other essential nutrients through the use of chlorophyll in their cells. This allows plants to generate their own energy and nutrients without needing to consume other organisms.
