Question

choose the correct answer.
what type of energy do herbivores and omnivores gain when they eat plants?
heat
kinetic
chemical

Explanation:

Plants store energy in the form of chemical compounds (like glucose). When herbivores and omnivores eat plants, they obtain this stored energy, which is chemical energy. Heat is a by - product of metabolic processes, not the main energy gained from eating plants. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, which is not directly obtained from eating plants (they first obtain chemical energy and then some of it can be converted to kinetic energy for movement).

Answer:

chemical
