When a person climbs stairs what form of energy is being converted into gravitational potential energy?
Energy stored in your muscles, which ultimately comes from the food you eat.
What does kinetic energy mean in science?
Kinetic energy is energy of movement. If an object moves it has kinetic energy. For instance, when you walk chemical energy in your food is converted to kinetic energy in your muscles.
What form of energy is chewing food?
It is both types of energy actually (potential and kinetic). The act of chewing involves kinetic energy (moving your jaw, the energy burned processing the food, etc.). When you consume the nutrients in the food, they are converted to potential energy which when used is then converted to kinetic energy when you use the muscles for more chewing, walking, breathing, etc. So, you turn potential energy, stored in glucose in your muscles, into kinetic energy when you chew the food by moving those muscles and digest the nutrients, which stores up more potential energy to be converted into other examples of kinetic energy when you burn that fuel for walking, running, living. Bit of a big circle.
What is the energy transformation when eating food?
First when a person began to digest the food it becomes a chemical energy. The chemical energy is converted into a kinetic energy. As the body gets energy the kinetic is converted into a mechanical energy.
What is converted energy called?
the energy Converter is called FOOD CHAIN or maybe ENERGY PYRAMID :))
How is energy converted into energy food?
Energy is converted into food molecules through the various chemical bond reactions that happen in the body of the living things.
When does energy when you eat food?
When you eat food, chemical energy is converted to mechanical energy. This happens when ATP is supplied to the muscles, enabling movement.
When you are active chemical energy of food is converted into which type of energy?
ur in bartos arent u
What is the energy located in the bonds of food molecules?
The location of energy release from food molecules is in the mitochondria of the cell. The process in which energy is released from food molecules is known as cellular respiration.
The energy in food molecules such as glucose is converted into what?
Its been degraded to two molecules of pyruvate.
When a person climbs stairs what form of energy is being converted into gravitational potential energy?
Energy stored in your muscles, which ultimately comes from the food you eat.
Why do you use chemical energy?
Because we can not use energy from light directly. It has to be converted into chemical energy in food molecules which we can then use to fuel cellular activities.
What does kinetic energy mean in science?
Kinetic energy is energy of movement. If an object moves it has kinetic energy. For instance, when you walk chemical energy in your food is converted to kinetic energy in your muscles.
What in the mitochondria break down food molecules?
Mitochondria use glucose as fuel.So food we eat converted to glucose.
Is it cellular respiration when the sun gets converted to food?
No, that is Photosynthesis. Cellular respiration is when organisms obtain energy from organic molecules and energy is released and carbon dioxide produced.
Where do muscles get their power from?
Your muscles get the "power" they need from the energy stored in food. When you digest food it gives you energy.
What is converted to food by the process of photosynthesis?
The sun's energy is converted into food by the process of photosynthesis.
