What is Organism Energetics and Energy Strategies about?
Organisms store excess energy in molecules like starch and fat to use later. If an organism spends more energy than it takes in, it will eventually die from lack of energy to maintain homeostasis. Species have evolved adaptive strategies to conserve energy like feedback mechanisms, gene regulation, shedding leaves or going into hibernation/estivation. Endothermic organisms require more energy than ectothermic ones to maintain a stable internal temperature through environmental changes, but endothermy allows
