Best Answer

The energy that allows you to lift a backpack comes from the food that you eat, especially carbohydrates. The energy in carbohydrates is stored in molecules of ATP during the process of aerobic cellular respiration. When you need energy, ATP is broken down into ADP + P + Energy. That energy is used by the cells to do work, including lifting a backpack.
