Question

both plants and animals have certain needs in order to survive, including food and water. which of the following is something that plants, but not animals, need in order to get at least one of these?
a. gases
b. light energy
c. water
d. shelter

Explanation:

Plants perform photosynthesis which requires light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Animals do not require light energy for survival as they obtain energy from consuming food (either plants or other animals). Gases (like oxygen for animals, carbon dioxide for plants), water, and shelter are needed by both plants and animals in some form for survival.

Answer:

B. light energy
