In biology what is a calorie?
In biology, the calorie is a unit of heat energy. The calorie is used to measure the amount of energy in the chemical bonds in molecules. A calorie is the amount of energy it takes to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water 1°C. Our normal use of the term 'calorie' is used to describe the amount of heat energy in food, but we actually use the kilo-calorie. For example, a cheeseburger that is advertised as having 300 calories actually contains 300,000 calories of energy.
How many grams does a kilo have?
1,000 grams in a kilo.
What is the difference between 'collenchyma' and 'chlorenchyma'?
Difference between collenchyma and chlorenchyma
How much difference between kilo and pound?
The actual conversion of 1 kilogram is equal to 2.204622622 pounds. For everyday use, rounding to 2.2 should be enough. One pound is 0.45359237 kilogram, or 0.45 kg for everyday use.
Explain the difference between temperature and kinetic energy?
Energy due to temperature is called thermal energy and is measured in Calories or BTU. Kinetic energy is that due to motion of a body and is measured in Joules. There is an equivalence between thermal and mechanical energy, 1 Calorie = 4.2 Joules, 1 BTU = 1055 Joules
How is a kilo-calorie related to a calorie?

What is the difference between "calorie" and "Calorie"?
The difference between "calorie" and "Calorie" is that a lowercase "calorie" refers to the energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius, while an uppercase "Calorie" refers to a kilocalorie, which is equal to 1,000 calories and is commonly used to measure the energy content of food.
What is the relationship between the calorie used by scientists and the calorie used by nutritionists?
I believe that the Scientist's calorie is an actual calorie; however, the dietitian's calorie is actually a Kilo-calorie. In other words, although a box of cereal may say 100 calories/serving...this is not accurate. It should read either 100 Kcal/serving, or 100,000 calories/ serving, but that would be a bit overwhelming. So, we've adopted a system of Kilo-calories that we inaccurately call 'calories'.

What is the relationship between the Calorie and a kilocalorie?
The difference between a calorie and a Calorie is calorie is a smaller unit than Calorie and it takes 1000 calorie's to make a Calorie. The Calorie (kilocalorie, kcal) is 1000 calories - a more useful unit and widely used.
