What is a substance that your body stores energy as?
fat is stored for energy
Where is the energy in sucrose stored?
Sucrose (table sugar) is a disaccharide compound composed of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose. In the human body the "energy" from sucrose is broken down into the aforementioned monosaccarides. The glucose is converted into glycogen and stored in muscle tissues. Fructose is stored as glycogen in the liver. If the energy stores of the muscles and liver in the human body become filled then the remaining glucose and fructose are stored in adipose tissue (body fat).
Describe the conversion of chemical energy to mechanical energy in your body?
We burn energy stored from food in our bonds between atoms. That energy converts into muscle energy to move our bodies.
Does fuels stored heat energy?
Heat is a form of energy that is a bit qualitative...when the temperature of 1 body is higher than the other we say the 1st body has higher heat content......Fuels do contain heat energy...but it is not what they are meant for....Fuels are basically chemicals which upon combustion get converted into products releasing energy that was stored in the bonds as heat, light and sound energy.....
What is protential energy?
The energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors. This stored energy of position is referred to as potential energy.
Where in the body are of the majority of triglycerides stored for future energy needs?
It can be stored in the muscle or adipose tissue as a triglyceride for later use
What happens to the energy not stored in the body?
what happened to the energy that is not stored in your body
What is the majority of the energy in the body stored in?
the major form of stored energy in the body is carbohydrate, stored as glycogen
Is carbohyrates stored by the body as energy reserves?
Lipids are stored by the body as energy reserves
What must the body do with the extra energy?
The body has no choice but to store the extra energy that is not used. This is usually stored as fat.
Which nutrients are stored in the body for later use?
Carbohydrates, if not used by the body, are stored as fat. Not all carbohydrates are converted to fat. Upon consumption the carbohydrates may be converted to glycogen for fast use by the body.
What are stored by the body as energy?
Lipids
What is the energy in a human body?
Energy is stored as chemical energy in human body. It is consumed when required.
Extra energy is primarilly stored?
When you take in calories, which are the amount of energy the food is giving to your body, you must use up that energy or else the energy will be stored as fat on your body
How is fat used in your body?
Nutrients, warmth It can be used for storing fat to be used for energy in the future and some is stored under our skin to help stop heat escaping from body
Where is glucose stored in the body?
In the human body, glucose is stored in the cells. The function of the stored glucose is the secondary energy storage. The primary energy is stored in the adipose tissue.
How is energy stored in the body?
Food provides energy, and too much food = too much energy so it will be stored. It will be stored and it is what we call fat. Fat can be stored almost anywhere on the human body, their usually stored around our bellys, butts, legs and arms.
