The process of burning gas in a car engine to release what kind of energy physical or chemical?

Neither, the process of burning gas (which stores chemical energy) releases that energy as "HEAT" energy. This heat energy is then converted into mechanical energy.


What is the opposite of cellular respiration?

The opposite of cellular respiration (oxidation) would be photosynthesis, the process plants use to create carbohydrates, which contain chemical bonds that can be broken to release energy.


What process breaks down glucose before cellular respiration?

Glucose is broken down IN cellular respiration, also called the Kreb cycle. Glucose enters this electron transport chain process intact, and is broken down to CO2 and water, while giving off chemical energy which is stored in the form of ATP molecules for the cell to use for chemical energy in metabolic processes. Glucose is not broken down before cellular respiration; it is broken down IN the process.


What is chemical energy and how is energy released?

chemical energy is energy found in substances. energy is never lost or gained (remember that) . you can measure the energy and release energy by heating substances. This way energy is released when the compounds heated are broken down.
