M1- Discuss the role of energy in the body‚ describe the process of cell respiration and give three examples of how energy is used in the human body Every living cell needs energy. The form of energy that we use is chemical energy in the form of glucose that we get in our food‚ mainly from carbohydrates such as bread‚ pasta and potatoes. Living cells cannot function without energy‚ which can then lead to death. To release the energy from glucose‚ oxygen is added (oxidise glucose) by breathing continuously

The sun has produced energy for billions of years. Solar energy is the sun’s rays (solar radiation) that reach the Earth. This energy can be converted into other forms of energy‚ such as heat and electricity. * In the 1830s‚ the British astronomer John Herschel famously used a solar thermal collector box (a device that absorbs sunlight to collect heat) to cook food during an expedition to Africa. Today‚ people use the sun’s energy for lots of things. solar energy can be used to: * Heat
