What kind of energy does your body constantly give off?

Your body constantly gives off heat energy through processes like metabolism and physical activity. This heat energy is a byproduct of the body's internal functions and helps to regulate your body temperature.


Why temperature of a body doesnt measure quantity of thermal energy?

Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of the particles in a body, while thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all the particles in a body. Two bodies at the same temperature can have different amounts of thermal energy depending on their size and mass. Temperature gives an indication of how fast the particles are moving, but not the total energy present.


What molecule gives instant energy?

Glucose is a molecule that provides instant energy to cells in the body through the process of glycolysis. When glucose is broken down, it releases ATP, a molecule that cells use for energy.


What in your body gives you energy?

Mitochondria are the key organelles in your body responsible for producing energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through a process called cellular respiration. This process involves breaking down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins from the food you eat to generate the energy your body needs to power its functions.
