Endothermic
If a reaction in one direction releases energy, then the same reaction in the other direction will absorb the same amount of energy. This is because energy is conserved in a reversible reaction, with the release and absorption of energy being equal and opposite.
A chemical reaction that transfers energy from the reactants to the surroundings is referred to as an exothermic reaction. A reaction that takes energy in is endothermic.
It gives energy to foxes and other animals
An 'exothermic' reaction gives of energy, and an 'endothermic' reaction absorbs energy.
No. One example of a chemical reaction which releases something other than heat is gamma radiation, which gives off massless light particles (as hard as that is to believe). In addition, all endothermic reactions actually consume heat energy.

There are different kinds of energy that have different features
It can be converted into electromagnetic/electrical energy.
an enzyme is a protein that catalyzes (increases the rates of) reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction. enzymes catalyze all kinds of reactions, including endergonic reactions.
Heat and light
Two types of energy changes that can occur in a chemical reaction are (1) endothermic and (2) exothermic. Endothermic is where energy is added to the system and exothermic is where energy is given off by the system.
In an endergonic reaction, the total energy of the products is higher than the total energy of the reactants. Energy input from the surroundings is needed for the reaction to occur, often in the form of ATP or another high-energy molecule. These reactions are non-spontaneous and require an input of energy to proceed.
