What does the body use carbohydrates for?
Energy.Carbs are converted to sugar in the body and utilized for energy.
What is the function of glycogen in organisms?
it is a form of carbohydrates which is stored in the liver.it releases energy when the body needs it
Why human body does not storage protein?
the human body does store protein, but it doesn't keep the protein structure, it turns it to fat, the body's only storage is adipose tissue (fat cells) the reason why the body doesn't store pure protein is because it can't get energy off it, the body's storage system is designed for energy.
How much of the available energy stored in glucose is converted to ATP?
About 67& of the energy in glucose is converted to ATP. The rest is lost as heat.
When you do physical exercise what is the energy stored in the carbohydrate fat and other molecules in the cells of your body is converted to energy of motion?
Chemical Energy
How live glycogen is converted to glucose?
Glycogen is a storage of energy within the body, and glucose is the primary form of energy
What happens if there is not enough sugar in the body?
sugar is needed for energy. If you do not eat, your body will scavenge sugar out of storage forms in the liver and muscles. if that runs out, it will start to burn fat to get energy. protein can also be converted to energy. basically if you run out of sugar, your body will begin using what it can to keep the energy flowing by scavenging parts of the body.
How heat energy is converted to mechanical energy in your body?
It isn't. Chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy.
What is the advantage of storage of sugar?
When sugar is stored in the body it creates a reservoir for excess energy for whenever it will be needed again.
What is obtained from stored body fat and is needed to keep the body alive?
Energy (i.e calories). This stored fat can be converted easily into energy that your body can use - useful if there is no food available for a long time.

Energy (i.e calories). This stored fat can be converted easily into energy that your body can use - useful if there is no food available for a long time.
What occurs when fat is used for energy in the body?
Fat is used mainly as an energy food. Fats are converted into energy by splitting them into fatty acids and glycerol. Glycerol is then converted to glycogen or glucose. Then the process of metabolism takes over to produce energy needed for the body. Fats provide the body with a form of stored energy. They take longer to digestive than carbohydrates. Carbs serve as a readily available form of energy for the body.
Why is energy needed by the body?
Energy is needed to keep your body in action!
