The document discusses how plants and animals get energy. In plants, chloroplasts capture energy from the sun during photosynthesis to produce food. Cells then release energy from this food through cellular respiration or fermentation. Photosynthesis and respiration are opposite processes, with respiration breaking down food to release energy that organisms need to grow and develop.
