Abstract
The ideas of first-year undergraduate science students about energy sources for living organisms have been studied by questionnaire. The results show that although students appreciate the correct sources of energy for organisms, misconceptions occur in that other essential, but non-energy-supplying, conditions are thought to provide energy. Analysis of the incidence of these ideas in students with and without O- and A-level Biology indicates that the incidence of some misconceptions is lower in students with O-level Biology, whereas the incidence of others is lower in students with A-level Biology.
