Question

14. All living things need energy to survive. The most common

source of energy for all organisms, including autotrophs, is gluca
molecules, which are used as food. Where do autotrophs get the
carbon atoms for photosynthesis?
A. from the water
B. from the sun
C. from the ground
D. from the air

Answer 1

Autotrophs get the carbon atoms for photosynthesis from the air.

Step-by-step explanation:

Autotrophs get the carbon atoms for photosynthesis from the air. They use carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere as a raw material for photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, autotrophs convert CO2 into glucose molecules, which store the energy needed for their survival.
