We store extra energy in two froms: Fat and Glycogen. Fat is commonly stored around your belly and leg area, Glycogen in every cell of the body. Muscular cells and the liver are especially rich in glycogen as they need a supply of fast energy to create movement (muscle), have a great passage of blood (liver) that they can dispense it to.
The energy in a human body is derived from the food we consume, which is converted into energy through a process called metabolism. This energy is used by the body to fuel various bodily functions, such as breathing, digestion, and movement. The unit typically used to measure energy in the body is the calorie.
The extra energy in your body is stored as glycogen in your muscles and liver for later use. If your glycogen stores are full, the excess energy is stored as fat in adipose tissue.
The average human body stores about 70,000 kilocalories of energy, which is equivalent to about 84 megajoules.
After death, the energy in a human body is released in the form of heat and is eventually transferred to the environment. The body decomposes, and the energy is dispersed into the surroundings.
The body has no choice but to store the extra energy that is not used. This is usually stored as fat.

The main store of energy is in the adipose tissue (body fat), with some also being stored in glycogen stores, for bursts of intense exercise.
Catabolic processes in the human body involve breaking down molecules to release energy, while anabolic processes involve building molecules to store energy.
The extra calories are typically stored as fat in the body for future energy use. Continually consuming more calories than your body needs can lead to weight gain and potential health issues like obesity.
False. Your body can store energy from food for future use in two ways: 1) as fat and 2) as muscle fuel (called glycogen). Its first priority is to fill its glycogen tanks, because glycogen is the body's primary source of energy for physical activity. Once your glycogen stores are filled and the rest of the body's energy needs are covered, all the extra energy from your food will be stored as body fat.
It can be used to store long term energy but mainly short term...
Fat is used to store energy. Carbohydrates.
Fat is stored energy. When the body needs extra energy - it uses up body fat.
Another name for extra body parts is supernumerary. They occur when there is a mutation within the human body's creation process. This causes an extra body part to happen.
The brain is the organ in the human body that uses the most energy.
In the liver
