In humans and animals, most glycogen is stored as granules. when the body needs energy, it breaks down the glycogen granules into energy.

What happens to the energy stored in plants when an animal eats the plant?
When an organism needs fuel, its cells can use oxygen to break apart food molecules. The release of energy in plants and animals from food is called respiration (res*puh*RAY*shuhn). In respiration, which occurs in plants and animals, sugars and oxygen join to produce water, carbon dioxide, and energy.
What average percentage of plant production goes to animal consumption?
100% The sun gives energy to the plants, the plants give energy to the herbivores, and the carnivores get their energy from the herbivores.
What are plants called when they make their own food of light energy?
Cell's that create their own food out of light energy are called plant cells. Plants is the organism made out of plant cells. A plant cell is part of a cell category called Eukaryotes. Eukaryotes contain both animal and plant cells.
What is transfer of energy in animal life?
The transfer of energy in animal life, quite simply, is the figurative passing of "energy" with each progressing predator. For example, plants are the first stage of energy transfer. Anything that eats the plants, such as small animals and insects, will inherit the plant's energy that the animal has consumed. If a larger animal eats the animal or insect that ate the plants, the larger animal will inherit both the smaller animal and plant's energy. This cycle continues until the superior animal (maybe a vulture because they eat the carcasses of other animals) inherits the energy and then dies. The dead organisms nutrients and energy become part of the soil that will eventually become new plants. The cycle then begins again. Yeah, I'm not even sure if "energy" is a figurative term for nutrients, but it has yet to be disproved. It's not a physical substance so can't be calculated by mass. I'm out, J.L
Is a hornwort a plant or animal?
A hornwort is a plant
True or false the energy in fossil fuels derived from the energy stored in plant and animal matter?
true
Is it true that energy in fossil fuels is derived from the energy stored in plant and animal matter?
Yes, that's where it is usually believed that fossil fuels come from - and that's why they are called "fossil" in the first place.
What type of energy is stored in a plant and then used in muscle cells of an animal that ate the plant?
Heat energy!!
What performance is made when a plant and animal cell releases energy stored in the bonds of glucose molecules?
Cellular Respiration is when plant and animal cells release energy stored in the bonds of glucose molecules.
How did the energy get into fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are made from plant and vegetable matter that died millions of years ago. The plants and vegetables got their energy from the main energy source around here - our sun. Essentially, fossil fuels can be regarded as stored energy from the sun. We use/release that energy again by burning the fuel.
How does a power plant transform energy in fossil fuels to electrical energy?
steps for power plant transform fossil fuels
What does the sun have to do with fossil fuels?
fossil fuels are the remains of dead plant matter, mostly plankton. Those plants use the sun to preform photosynthis. So the sun in a way grew the materials that the oil and coal we use today are made up of.
How do animals benefit from a plant's method of storing sugar?
For plant-eating animals the benefit is that they can get to the sugar the plant has stored.
When a large animal eats a plant eater does it receive energy?
it gets oxygen originally stored in plants got it from meh teacher she tot us this
Is it true When fossil fuels are burned they release energy stored years ago?
Yes. The energy stored in fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) comes from animals and plant matter stored underground 300 million years ago. Releasing it now adds extra carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, causing global warming and climate change.
How does photosynthesis produse biomass?
Biomass fuels come from living things. Wood is a biomass fuel. As long as we continue to plant new trees to replace those cut down, we will always have wood to burn. Just as with the fossil fuels, the energy stored in biomass fuels came originally from the Sun.
What is plant's stored energy?
powerhouse
