How is energy associated with food stored? a. potential energy in chemical form b. kinetic energy in

The energy associated with the food is stored as potential energy in chemical form. The energy from the food we eat can be derived from it only when it has been properly digested, and had undergone multiple chemical reactions. The energy in the food remains unavailable until it is properly processed. It is stored in the form of potential energy present in the chemical form inside the food.

Hence, the answer is option (a) - potential energy in chemical form.

A) Food energy is potential energy (because it needs something done to it, in this case breaking down) and it is stored in a chemical form. 

"Potential energy in chemical form" is the one way among the choices given in the question that energy is associated with food stored. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "a". I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your great help.

a. potential energy in chemical form

Explanation:

The food is the source of chemical energy as there exists various chemicals in the food like proteins, fats, vitamins, carbohydrates and others. The chemical energy is converted into potential energy after the digestion of food. The potential energy is in the form of ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) which is released and stored when the chemical bonds present in the food breaks down.  

A. Potential energy in chemical form.

Explanation:

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

The food we eat contains potential energy in the form of chemicals e. g Carbohydrates, that the body use in carrying out various biological activities.

a. potential energy in chemical form.

Explanation:

Food provides energy to animals to do work. It is produced by green plants by photosynthesis. Carbon-dioxide and water react in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll to produce food in the form of sucrose and liberate oxygen.

CO₂ + H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ (Food) + O₂

This food is consumed by animals. The chemical energy stored in the bonds of the atoms which make up the food are broken in digestion process and energy is used to to work. Thus, we can say potential energy is stored in the form of chemical energy in food.
