Tadpoles do not directly receive energy from the sun as their main source of energy. Unlike plants, tadpoles are unable to perform photosynthesis and convert sunlight into usable energy. Instead, tadpoles obtain their energy from their diet. They consume various small organisms like algae, plankton, and detritus present in the water. These organisms indirectly receive energy from the sun through the process of photosynthesis. Thus, tadpoles indirectly rely on solar energy for their sustenance.
