Where is the energy stored in the energy storage molecule?
In the chemical bonds that like their bonds.
Bacteria that use chemicals like sulfur as an energy source are considered?
chemoautotrophs
What is difference in energy density and power density?
Energy density is the amount of power that can be stored ( in for example capacitance) to be then consumed over time, whereas power density is how much energy is consumed quickly like the energy stored in a capacitance can be consumed very quickly.
What can you draw for chemical energy?
Chemical energy is energy stored in particles of matter, so you can draw like a cup with water and in the particle just label it chemcal energy.
Chemical enegy is a type of potential energy?
Yes, chemical energy is a type of potential energy. Chemical energy is also called stored energy, because it's stored in the bonds that hold together molecules. It has the potential to be released from the bonds & become another type of energy, like thermal or light.
Energy stored in chemicals like food?
Energy stored in chemicals is chemical energy.
Is the energy stored in food heat energy?
Energy is stored in many ways. Energy is stored in food. We eat the food to get energy. Energy can also be stored in other ways, such as batteries.Sources of stored energy take many forms like food, fuel and batteries. All energy on the Earth comes from the Sun.Heat from the sun warms everything on the Earth. Light and heat are forms of energy, which come directly from the Sun. Plants, use the energy from sunlight to make food. Energy from the sun is stored in leaves, stems, roots and fruits. When an animal eats plants it gets the energy stored inside the plant.Animals eat plants and get the energy stored in plant tissues. They utilize this energy for various activities like running, climbing, hunting and keeping warm. Food we eat contains energy to power our bodies.Fuels such as oil and coal contain huge amounts of energy. Energy released from these fuels, wind and water can be changed into electricity. Energy is needed for almost all activities that make up our lives.thank u . . :-)
What do animals use in order to release energy stored in food?
Animals use their stomach and then enzymes to release the energy stored in food. This energy is formed into high energy compounds like adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
What is form is energy stored in at the end of photosynthesis?
Chemical energy
Is kinetic energy often called 'stored energy'?
"Stored energy" sounds more like potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy related to movement.
What form of energy is stored in coal?
The energy stored in coal that is converted to heat is chemical energy. Of course coal, like any other matter, also has stored nuclear energy.
What accounts for the potential energy stored inn things like food and oil?
This is potential chemical energy. It needs something else to make the energy release. In the case of food it is enzymes in the stomach which enable us and animals to digest the food to get the energy from it. In the case of oil it requires oxygen to burn it.
What cell organelles convert energy from consumed food molecules into usable energy stored as ATP molecules?
Mitochondria are like the powerhouse of the cell and they convert the food we digest in adenosine triphosphate. Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.
Is protein used for the energy storage in animals?
Primarily proteins are not used for energy storage. Proteins are primarily building material for the body. Energy is stored as fat and carbohydrates like glycogen. Energy for emmediate use is stored as ATP, but ATP is constantly reproduced by converting other energy to ATP. When other storages are empty, protein in body structures can however be broken down and used for energy. If the food contains little carbohydrates and little fat, protein in the food can be converted to fat and glycogen which then are stored for energy.
How can electrical energy be stored?
Electric energy can be stored in batteries, inductors, and capacitors.
What is nuclear energy if it is not renewable and not a fossil fuel?
It is energy stored by ancient supernovas in heavy nuclei like Uranium, when the stars exploded.It is also energy stored by the Big Bang in light nuclei like Hydrogen.This energy is stored in the Strong Nuclear Force as excess Nuclear Binding Energy.
What does the cell have to do in order to get the energy that is stored in a molecule like glucose sugar?
thats the use of mitochondria . it brakes down food molecules into energy in the process of anaerobic respiration or anaerobic respiration
