things and The Sun’s Energy Most of the energy we use is from the sun. This energy from the sun is called solar energy‚ plants convert it into energy‚ and animals eat plants and convert that into energy. Humans eat plants and animals and convert those into energy; humans also use solar energy to create electricity. How exactly then is the sun’s energy converted into a sustainable energy source? One process is photosynthesis. In plants‚ cells called chloroplasts collect energy from the sun and use

Nuclear energy Nuclear energy in scientific terms defined as the inhaustible energy derived from the nucleus of an atom by the process of nucleus break up through nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. Nuclear fission is a process where the nucleus of an atom splits and releases radioactive materials such as uranium which are used in many ways. Nuclear fusion is a process s when the two atoms of an element get together and large amount of heat is generated. in this way the nucleus releases tremendous

The Role of Energy in the Body M1 Your body needs some kind energy to keep it functioning and working properly; Our bodies inherit the energy they need from food through metabolism. Metabolism is the chemical reactions in the cells that transfer the fuel from food into the energy needed in everyday life to complete daily activities. Energy is needed to get rid of oxygen from certain areas in our bodies and remove it from our bloodstream. Energy comes from; Fats Carbohydrates proteins Without

We require energy for each and every activity that is being performed whether physically or chemically. This energy is acquired from the food we eat. In order to release that energy‚ certain anabolic and catabolic reactions take place. The three main energy systems are ATP Pcr‚glycolytic and oxidative; oxidative having three futher subgroups. These are discussed below ATP Pcr The ATP Pcr system is a constituent of Adenosine triphosphate and phosphocreatine. This energy system provides high energy
