2 Answers
Yes, sun is the ultimate source of all the organisms.
Explanation:
Sun is the ultimate source of energy of all the autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms. The light energy from sun is captured by the green plants though the process of photosynthesis in the chemical energy. This chemical energy is transferred to other heterotrophic organisms by food-chain and food-web. Thank you
The sun is the energy source for most living things. But not all.
Explanation:
The deep ocean volcanic vents produce sulfur compounds that are used for energy by a variety of living organisms around the vents.
Some forms of bacteria are able to synthesis the compound coming out of the vents into useable energy becoming the foundation of complex food chains and webs around the vents.
These extreme forms of life are the exception not the rule. Most living things depend on plants and bacteria that are able to extract energy from sunlight and turn the photo energy into chemical energy.
