Plant photosynthesis and the consumption of plants by animals is best explained by what unifying principle of life? a) all living organisms use energy. b) all living organisms maintain organization. c) all living organisms have evolved over the course of many generations. d) all living organisms maintain some level of homeostasis. e) all living organisms are composed of similar structures.

The correct answer is option A) "All living organisms use energy".
