muscles use chemical energy in glucose , as the bonds in glucose break, chemical energy changes to mechanical energy and the muscle contracts.. well there you go that how you produce mechanical energy :)

What form of energy does the horse have as it run?

The horse uses its store of chemical energy from the carbon food it eats (grass), which is combined with oxygen breathed in from the atmosphere in the muscles to produce carbon dioxide, CO2, which is breathed out. This process releases chemical energy into the muscles which produce mechanical energy to carry the horse forward.


When a basketball player bends his knees before jumping energy is stored what is another term for stored energy?

In this case the player is compressing muscles in his legs which then can be expanded to produce kinetic energy. The energy stored in the muscles would be a form of elastic potential, but I don't think it is quite the same as winding up a rubber band, because the muscles actually produce energy as well as release stored energy. You might get a better explanation from section Human Physiology.

The liver can supply the skeletal muscles with energy in the form of free glucose but the skeletal muscles cannot supply the liver with energy in the form of free glucose?

No. Unlike skeletal muscles, the liver contains an enzyme known as glucose 6-phosphatase that can remove the phosphate groups and produce free glucose.
