if a plant or animal has extra food, what might they do with the extra? give specific example?

as far as plants are concerned they have a storage area in their cell known as VACUOLES within which the food is stored and used when required.\n\nand for animals there r only few aninmals who really store the  food. straight forward e.g are of a camel, bulls having hump at their back to store the food for future use

Dead plants and animals cannot be said to occupy a level in the food chain as being dead they are not able to eat and therefore occupy the lowest space on the trophic level  as food for fungus, microbes, insects, animals and other plant life.\n\nStrange question.

I would just talk about way plant and animal cells are constructed like cell walls and stuff. And talk about differences in how they make energy like animals burn sugar and plants first make sugar themselves. I'm sure that could be used to discuss nutrients issues.

They dont really eat anything as such. They have sensors sort of thing between the trap. When any foreign body, say bug, flies or even ur finger comes in it, it senses it and instantly the trap closes. then the nitrients from the body of the foreign body are extracted and used for the plant's nutrition.

It can be any type of animal (cow, chicken, kitten, buffalo, frog, etc.) or corn on the cob or a pomegranate (peel, eat, spit out seeds)...shall I go on?

herbivore is the name given to plant eating animals

I’ve a vegetarian so I’ve eaten my share of tofu based products.  I have a rule though; it can’t try to be something it isn’t.  Last year a person brought a Tofurkey to Thanksgiving dinner and no animal alive would even dare touch it.

In one seminar I attended, on plants containing pharmaceuticals, the speaker commented that they may have first arisen as an accidental byproduct of the plant's own metabolism.  They lack an excretory system, so they can just shed odd compounds into old leaves, bark, etc, to get them out of living cells.\n\nIf the plant is then under attack by an insect (or other small animal, eg a slug or snail) that tiny herbivore may spend much of its life cycle feeding on a certain plant.  Thus, that animal gets a huge dose of whatever odd compounds the plant has made.\n\nIf these compounds slow down that animal, by killing it, or just confusing it so it drops off the plant, this characteristic will confer a selective advantage to that plant.  It may lead to more of the toxic compound being made, not less.\n\nHe said that these effects are less likely to be useful in deterring larger animals, for whom a certain plant species might form a very small % of a browsing (or gathering) diet.

That depends on the plant and what you have been eating....\n\nI know of one particular tree that seems to have done quite well....

I'm not too sure if you're looking for a specific kind of answer or just whatever comes out of the "question grinder" but I'll answer in 5ive parts:\n\n1. Diet. Most experts seem to agree that if you ate only meat (not the whole animal, just the muscle meat) or only vegetation (including beans), you'd be much, much better off eating the veggies. \n\n2. The environment. It's better for the environment to eat veggies. It's just a much more productive use of land and it allows animals to roam free for their lifetime until they die through disease, hunting, or predators.\n\n3. Air quality: If you have a lot of plants, they should increase the amount of oxygen you take in, and clean up the air a bit in some ways.\n\n4. Peace of Mind. I don't know about anyone else, but just being around trees gives me a sense of calm. I don't know why but I guess I don't have to.\n\n5. Easy "pets". If you want a pet but can't have one for any of various reasons, a plant is a nice alternative.

pigs used to be fed anything including human waste. so i guess that you could feed them scraps of wood just so they would have something to munch on. i know that you can feed cows sawdust but not for very long.

Via the carbon cycle. Green plants take in carbon dioxide from air during photosynthesis to produce a 6C sugar. Herbivores eat these green plants and carnivores eat herbivores. All animals respire and give back carbon into the air via carbon dioxide. And when all animals die, putrefying agents aid in the decomposition of dead matter and carbon compounds are taken back into the soil or given out into the air as carbon dioxide.

It would post probably be sunlight.......some plant organisms may survive without water for long periods of time, such as ones in the desert....... but sunlight is required for green plants to make food  which unlike for humans......... food is the bigger priority than water

there´s also corn, alfalfa, oilseed rape (canola), cantaloupe, sugar beet, tomato and a whole bunch others that can be used for humans and animals alike. \nHere´s a list from the FDA, that should give you tons! :-D\n\nhttp://vm.cfsan.fda.gov/~lrd/biocon.html
