What else can I help you with?
What is the energy source that helps plants make food?
It actually isn't a chemical. It is known as chlorophyll which is present in chloroplasts in the plant cells. It captures light energy from the sun, converts it into chemical energy and uses other raw materials to produce simple sugars i.e glucose.
Is food you eat a source of energy?
for humans, food supplies the body with necessary molecules that make the body function. in the case of energy, humans get their glucose from consuming photosynthetic organisms such as plants. the body then breaks down the glucose in a process called cellular respiration. This process produces ATP, which is the molecule that animal cells use for energy.
What kind of energy is used when diving?
When diving, energy from food stored in the body is utilized by the muscles for movement and breathing. Additionally, the body may also use energy stored in the form of glycogen and fat to sustain prolonged diving activities.
What does your body use to make energy?
Your body primarily uses carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to make energy through a process called cellular respiration. Carbohydrates are the preferred source of energy, but fats and proteins can also be broken down to provide energy when needed.
What accounts for the potential energy stored inn things like food and oil?
This is potential chemical energy. It needs something else to make the energy release. In the case of food it is enzymes in the stomach which enable us and animals to digest the food to get the energy from it. In the case of oil it requires oxygen to burn it.
The molecules that make up food contain energy how does the human body get energy from food molecules?
By breaking chemical bonds in the molecules
The molecules that make up food contain energy. how does the human body get energy from the food molecules?
by breaking chemical bonds in the molecules
It is the energy stored in food?
Food contains chemical energy. Chemical bonds have a certain amount of energy locked up in them. Your body breaks these bonds with chemical reations, releasing the energy, which your body then uses to pump blood, make organs function, walk, run, etc.
Organism that make their own food with sunlight or chemical energy are called?
Organisms that make their own food with sunlight or chemical energy are called autotrophs.
What part of your body make energy?
Your body does not make energy, it extracts it from the food you eat.
What are organisms that make their own food with sunlight or chemical energy called?
Organisms that make their own food with sunlight or chemical energy are called autotrophs.
What can make your body change into to food into energy?
Food changes into energy when the carbs aare absorbed by the body. for this to happen the body has to digest the food.
How do you get the energy your body needs?
You get the energy you need by eating food. Your body makes energy with the nutritions in the food. It can make kinetic energy or potential energy.
What is form is energy stored in at the end of photosynthesis?
Chemical energy
What is the energy from the sun or energy stored in chemical compounds to make its own food?
autotroph
When plants make food through photosynthesis which energy transformation occurs?
Light energy to chemical energy
What two things does your body use to create more energy?
You cannot CREATE energy but the human body can transform energy from one kind (chemical energy in the bonds that make up food and oxygen in the air we breath) into other types of energy (heat, potential energy - by lifting something).
