Your body is using energy all the time. When you're not moving, it's using it for brain processes and to generate heat; that's why humans typically maintain a nice, toasty temperature of about 98 degrees. Muscles use energy. Your brain uses energy. Even the growth of your fingernails uses energy.
What else can I help you with?
Why do you break apart glucose?
Glucose is broken down in the body through the process of glycolysis to produce energy in the form of ATP. This breakdown of glucose allows cells to utilize the energy stored in glucose for various cellular processes and functions.
Organisms undergo many different processes in order to be able to store energy and utilize that energy. Through which of the following processes is energy stored in the form of glucose?
photosynthesis
Food energy not stored as fat or glycogen is stored as what?
Food energy that is not stored as fat or glycogen is typically stored as protein in the body for muscle repair and growth. Proteins can also be used as an energy source when needed.
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.
What happens to the end products after they are formed?
Once end products are formed, they are either used as energy sources, stored for later use, or excreted from the body as waste. The body's cells can then utilize these end products to carry out various functions and maintain overall health.
How do organisms utilized the stored energy from green plants?

How does the body utilize ATP glycogen during physical activity?
During physical activity, the body uses ATP (adenosine triphosphate) stored in muscles for immediate energy. If the activity continues, the body breaks down glycogen stored in the muscles and liver to produce more ATP for sustained energy.
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 type of energy can be utilized by your cells?
Cells primarily utilize potential energy stored in chemical bonds.
What is the energy reserve stored in the body?
The primary energy reserve stored in the body is glycogen, which is stored in the liver and muscles. Additionally, the body can also store energy in the form of adipose tissue (body fat) for long-term energy storage.
What are stored by the body as energy?
Lipids
What is the energy that is stored in your body fat?
That is a type of chemical energy.
Why do you break apart glucose?
Glucose is broken down in the body through the process of glycolysis to produce energy in the form of ATP. This breakdown of glucose allows cells to utilize the energy stored in glucose for various cellular processes and functions.
What do fats do in your body?
They provide the body with a stored form of energy.
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.
