Question

If energy can't be created according to the first law of thermodynamics, where does it initially come from? plants water the Sun

Answer 1

Energy just exists.

It goes from one thing to another. It never dies out.

We get our energy from the burning mass of the energy ball that we call the sun.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer would be the sun.

Energy can neither be created not it can be destroyed, however, it can transform from one form to another.

Similarly, solar energy is converted into the chemical energy (food) by the process of photosynthesis.

The autotrophs are then eaten by the herbivores which in turn are eaten by carnivores.

It is why the sun is considered as the ultimate source of the energy in an ecosystem.
