UNIT 2: CELLS & CELL ENERGY

Like other carnivores, the Venus flytrap eats animals to get nutrients that it needs to make molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids.  Other chemical compounds made by the plant cells enable the Venus flytrap to digest the animals that it eats.  These chemicals are similar to the chemicals that allow you to digest the food that you eat.  (McDougal Littell Biology) Chapter 3

The cells of all organisms- from algae to whales to people- need chemical energy for all of their processes.  Some organisms, such as diatoms and plants, absorb energy from sunlight.  Some of the energy is stored in sugars.  Cells break down sugars to produce usable chemical energy for their functions.  Without organisms that make sugars, living things on Earth could not survive. (McDougal Little)  Chapter 4
