Matter and Energy

What is an energy storage molecule?

• A molecule that organisms can use to release the energy needed to survive

• An organism that needs to eat in order to get energy storage molecules

• Matter that makes up the nonliving parts of an ecosystem

• The process by which plants and other producers use energy from sunlight to change carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose
