Where does energy for the body come from?
The energy for your body usually comes from the foods that you eat. The calories in the food are broken down to carbohydrates to create energy so your body can use them.
Why temperature of a body doesnt measure quantity of thermal energy?
Quantity of thermal energy is the TOTAL amount of energy put into a body. Temperature is related, at least roughly, to the AVERAGE energy per atom.
How do you get your energy?
Eating and drinking, for heterotrophs and photosynthesis and other autotrophic behavior for autotrophs.
How does your body 'burn' energy?
by burning calories you ever notice how athletes eat energy bars and stuff like that? that's because those foods have lots of calories. When you eat you consume calories: a measure of kinetic energy. Your body uses up calories through physical activity. Even walking or lifting a finger requires energy. Without calories, you would be really tired and sleepy.
How do you compare and contrast heat and temperature?
Thermal energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the particles in a material. Heat is a form of energy transferred by differences in temperature. These are both forms of energy.
What happens to the by-products created as cells unlock energy contained in foods?
throws it away
What calories means?
Calories are a measure of heat energy. Eating foods that contain calories allows your body to expend energy and to maintain body temperature. Excess calories are stored as fat.
What nutrients are your body's primary energy source found in sugars and starches contained in food?
Carbohydrates are. There your body's primary energy source not just from sugars and starches, but many other foods too. But, your body also needs enough of protein, vitamins, calcium, grains, and sugars/fats. Also calories.
What does your body do to release the energy stored in foods?
yes.
What might occur if the cells of the body contained malfunctioning mitochondria?
Body will not get enough energy. So it will malfunction
Is it true carbohydrates and fats are called body building foods?
NO, they are energy-giving-foods.
What kind of foods store energy in the body?
Fat is used to store energy. Carbohydrates.
Where does energy for the body come from?

How does food affect your body?
it gives you energy and some foods have different affects on your body
When a brown bear eats a salmon does the bear acquire all the energy contained in the body of the fish Why or why not?
When a brown bear eats a salmon it does not acquire all the energy contained in the body of the fish. This is because the bear's body is not efficient enough to obtain all of the energy from what eat eats. When the cells covert the protein of the fish into energy, it looses most of the useful energy in the process (the second law of thermodynamics proves this).
Where do you get energy for your body to do work?
From vitamins, nutrients, fats, and calories in foods.
What does Go food mean?
Go foods are foods that give the body energy such as playing and jumping. Grains would be an example of Go foods.
