In humans and animals, most glycogen is stored as granules. when the body needs energy, it breaks down the glycogen granules into energy.

True or false the energy in fossil fuels derived from the energy stored in plant and animal matter?

true


Is it true that energy in fossil fuels is derived from the energy stored in plant and animal matter?

Yes, that's where it is usually believed that fossil fuels come from - and that's why they are called "fossil" in the first place.


How is energy stored in fossilized plant and animal matter?

Energy in fossilized plant and animal matter is stored in the form of chemical bonds within organic compounds. Over millions of years, heat and pressure transform these remains into fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas. The energy originally captured from sunlight through photosynthesis in plants or consumed by animals is released when these fossil fuels are burned, converting the stored chemical energy into usable energy.


What type of energy is stored in a plant and then used in muscle cells of an animal that ate the plant?

Heat energy!!


What performance is made when a plant and animal cell releases energy stored in the bonds of glucose molecules?

Cellular Respiration is when plant and animal cells release energy stored in the bonds of glucose molecules.


How does a power plant transform energy in fossil fuels to electrical energy?

A power plant burns fossil fuels such as coal, oil, or natural gas to heat water and produce steam. The steam then drives a turbine connected to a generator, which produces electricity. This process converts the chemical energy stored in fossil fuels into mechanical energy and then into electrical energy.


When fossil fuels are burned what is energy converted into?

When fossil fuels are burned, the chemical energy stored in the fuel is converted into heat energy. This heat energy is then used to produce steam in a power plant, which drives a turbine to generate electricity.


What does the sun have to do with fossil fuels?

fossil fuels are the remains of dead plant matter, mostly plankton. Those plants use the sun to preform photosynthis. So the sun in a way grew the materials that the oil and coal we use today are made up of.


When a large animal eats a plant eater does it receive energy?

it gets oxygen originally stored in plants got it from meh teacher she tot us this


How did the energy get into fossil fuels?

Fossil fuels are made from plant and vegetable matter that died millions of years ago. The plants and vegetables got their energy from the main energy source around here - our sun. Essentially, fossil fuels can be regarded as stored energy from the sun. We use/release that energy again by burning the fuel.


Is it true When fossil fuels are burned they release energy stored years ago?

Yes. The energy stored in fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) comes from animals and plant matter stored underground 300 million years ago. Releasing it now adds extra carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, causing global warming and climate change.
