Food energy is measured in Calories.
A Food Calorie is 1 Kilojoule, or 1,000 Science Calories.
The amount of energy released when nutrients are burned is called a calorie. A wax, fat like substance with the body is a cholesterol.
When molecules are broken down the energy is released from the outer electron shells of the various elements involved.

energy
During metabolism, energy nutrients are broken down and distributed to cells throughout the body. These nutrients are used to power cell functions.

released
When bonds are broken, energy is released.TrueFalse
Energy is added to break bonds, so there is your simple answer. But some bonus info for you:Bond energy is the amount of energy it will take to break a bond (ironic, because it sounds like the amount of energy it will take to MAKE a bond, even though it's the opposite).Energy is released when bonds form, and the same amount of energy is released when the bond is broken.
No, energy is consumed.
When molecules are broken down the energy is released from the outer electron shells of the various elements involved.
The first phosphatase bond that is broken releases the greatest amount of energy; the second and third release much less energy.
