Energy is NOT a compound.
What is energy from the burning of organic material?
If by 'organic' material you mean recently growing plant material, this would be classed as biomass. In chemistry fuels such as oil are classed as organic, but I feel you may not mean that.
What is the term for organic matter that contains stored energy?
Biomass
The energy required to break the bonds in 1 mol of a chemical compound?
bond energy
What does not require energy obtained from pre-formed organic molecules?
Autotrophs
What organic compound stores and releases short term energy?
Carbohydrates function in short-term energy storage (such as sugar).
Is energy an organic or inorganic compound?
Energy is NOT a compound.
Which organic macromolecule is used long term energy storage in animals?
The organic macromolecule used for the long term energy storage in animals is triglyceride.
Which organic macromolecule is used for long term energy storage in animals?

What organic compound do athletes load up on for energy?
This compound is glucose.
What place for storage of organic materials in plants?
Starch is the storage form of energy in plants
Which organic molecule is important for the storage of excess energy?

a protein
Organic compound that has the sun's energy stored in it?
chlorophyll
Is chlorophyll a organic or inorganic?
No. (sunlight is already energy).Chlorophyll is a chemical in plants that is involved in photosynthesis, using light energy to create nutrients that a plant needs to flourish.
What organic compound is the main source of energy for living?
carbohydrates - they provide energy.
What type of organic compound provides the best energy storage?
Carbohydrates function in short-term energy storage (such as sugar) and as intermediate-term energy storage (starch for plants and glycogen for animals). Fats and oils function in long-term energy storage. Fats yield 9.3 Kcal/gm, while carbohydrates yield 3.79 Kcal/gm. Fats thus store six times as much energy as glycogen.
