- Q6All living organisms must be able to acquire and release energy in order to survive. Plants take in energy from the Sun and use that energy to make sugar and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water. Euglena, a type of protist, can also take in energy from the Sun and make sugar and oxygen. Which of the following statements is true given the above information?Protists are not similar to plants in any way.Only plants and euglena can use light energy from the Sun.Different organisms can carry out their life functions in similar ways.All organisms carry out their life functions in different ways.120s
- Q7What feature is similar among all organisms?They are composed of one or more cells that function to sustain life.They are composed of multiple tissue types.They can transform sunlight into food for sustenance.They can consume other organisms to create energy.120s
