What form of energy are you doing when eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?

Answer 1

Well, it really depends what kind of sandwich, and what kind of bread you are using (wholegrain bread has lots of fibre)- but there is always starch in bread which produces alot of energy.

However, if for example you had a:

Ham sandwich- protein from the ham, starch from the bread, calcium & fats from the butter/marge (if you like it like that)

Cheese sandwich- calcium from the cheese, starch from the bread.

ect, ect.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Glucose gives us more energy than a sandwich. This is because, when we take any food our body breaks it into glucose, but if we take in glucose directly then we get instant energy and our body does not have to break it into glucose again. In this case, it gets directly mixed into the blood stream. Because the body has to break the sandwich first into glucose before it gives us energy, after passing through the long digestive system, it does not give as much as energy as that which is given out from direct glucose. Thus, glucose gives us more energy than a sandwich.

Answer 3

potential energy because the sandwhich itself is potential energy (stored energy) as you eat it, it becomes stored energy inside your body for use

Answer 4

During the digestion process the sandwich which contains carbohydrates produces energy.
