Energy is one of the most important factors in today’s living. Energy is used for many reasons. For example: helping maintain the flow of businesses‚ transporting goods and services to different places. Most of our daily activities‚ if not all‚ require some type of energy. According to the Energy Project‚ “We need energy for everything -- to power our homes‚ drive our cars‚ use technology and even to feed and clothe us.” Even the resources we use on a daily basis‚ such as our phones or the Internet

Extra Credit Assignment Energy Transfer in living systems Energy is the capacity to do work. All living organisms require energy for carrying on their vital metabolic activities. The primary source of energy for living system is solar radiation. The radiant energy of sunlight cannot be utilized directly by all living organisms. This ability rests only with the green plants. All the other organisms have to meet their energy requirement only through the green plants. Energy that flows in the living

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

Alternative Energy for Future Nowadays the most common energy resources come from Fossil Fuel‚ which according to research it shows that more of 85% of all energy that is consumed in the United States. It takes millions of years for the Fossil Fuel to actually develop and ready to be used‚ and the main concern of Fossil Fuel is that it cannot be consumed over and over again or reused. Through this analysis it can be assumed that because it takes millions of years for the fossil fuel to develop‚
