Mangroves, like other plants, obtain energy through the process of photosynthesis, which relies on sunlight. Photosynthesis converts sunlight into chemical energy in the form of carbohydrates.
The exact percentage of energy that mangroves receive from the sun may vary depending on various factors such as location, weather conditions, and the health of the mangrove ecosystem. However, on average, it is estimated that mangroves derive about 90 to 95% of their energy requirements from sunlight through photosynthesis. The remaining energy needs can be obtained through nutrient uptake from the soil or water.
