What kind of creatures are Yeerks?

Starsword:
We get vitamin D from the sun but we dont photosynthesize. Maybe Kandrona just has a vitamin they need.

musicman88:
I'm glad I'm specializing in physical chemistry and not organic chemistry...

Yorick Brown:
What's the difference between the two?

musicman88:
Physical chemistry deals with mostly non-carbon based things like metals and such while Organic chemistry deals with, well, organic things.

Myitt:
I'm really glad I didn't have to take p-chem  :P 

Although I didn't like organic much better x3

If Kandrona's the energy from their home sun, it's probably just shooting whatever wavelengths Yeerks need to photosynthesize (which they probably do, but it's never really stated) in whatever quantities they need to get electrons kicking around in what passes for chloroplasts in Yeerks...and it could affect vitamin production if Yeerk skin is anything like human skin when exposed to UVB light...maybe Kandrona is more UV or infrared than Earth's sunlight?  Otherwise what makes Kandrona so special that Yeerks can't just sit in Earth sunlight to feed...

God we're nerds XD
