Answer 1

Answer:

it will be B

Explanation:

because they cant harness energy from the chemical substances....

Answer 2

A. Living organisms can harness energy from the sun.

is the true statement.

• The continual input of energy, mostly from sunlight, sustains the process of life.
• Sunlight allows plants, algae, and cyanobacteria to use photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic compounds like carbohydrates.
• This process is the fundamental source of organic material in the biosphere.
• Metabolism is a combination of chemical reactions that are spontaneous and release energy and chemical reactions that are non-spontaneous and require energy in order to proceed.
• Living organisms must take in energy via food, nutrients, or sunlight in order to carry out cellular processes.
• Most organisms either directly or indirectly use energy from the sun to survive, but not all of them.
• There are living things very deep in the ocean near deep-sea vents that do not need the sun to survive.
• They are so far down in the ocean that no sunlight reaches them and they get all of their energy from chemicals dissolved in the water near the vents.

So, we conclude that option A is the correct answer.
