Energy from the sun creates wind and rain. The wind helps
scatter seeds for new plant and tree growth. Rain provides needed
water.
|
 |
Trees and plants grow because they take energy from the sun
and convert it to chemical energy through a process called photosynthesis.
The chemical energy is stored in the plant as potential energy.
|
 |
When a bear eats a plant, the stored energy from the plant
is converted to muscle energy...
|
 |
...and the bear can climb a tree! So the sun allows the tree
to grow and gives the bear the energy to climb it!
