Although lipids hold the majority of the body's energy reserves, glycogen is the body's primary energy source.

Glucose is a polymer that makes up glycogen. Our body's primary source of energy is carbs. The remaining glucose in the body is turned into glycogen and stored in various places, but the majority of our body's energy reserves are found in fats, which are kept in the form of lipids.

Where does the energy come from in the muscles?

The chemical energy that is stored in our meals is used by muscles to produce heat and motion energy (kinetic energy). Energy is necessary for maintaining body temperature, promoting physical activity, and enabling tissue growth and repair. Foods high in protein, fat, and carbohydrates provide energy.

What Takes Place to Muscles in the Absence of Glucose?

Your body converts carbs, such as those found in bread or fruit, into glucose after consumption. Glycogen is the form of glucose that is stored in your muscles and liver and is used for energy when you are not eating or while you are exercising.

How much sulfur (in tons), present in the original materials, would result in that quantity of S)2
Olegator [25]
Sulfur reacts with oxygen to produce sulfur dioxide. That is for every mole of sulfur reacted, one mole of sulfur dioxide also is produced. With the given mole of sulfur dioxide, the amount of sulfur in mass is determined by multiplying the number of moles to the molar mass of sulfur (32 g/mol).

Three elements are represented by the letters A, B, and C. the three elements have the same number of valence electrons. Element
AfilCa [17]
Answer:
A- beryllium
B- calcium
C- magnesium

Explanation
NOTE: all element in group 2 have 2 balance electrons

First let’s start with B- number of electrons= number of protons which is equal to the atomic number. therefore, the answer is calcium as it’s atomic number is 20

C- magnesium will have three energy levels considering it has 12 electrons (2,8,2).

A- beryllium is the lightest one in group 2 as it has the atomic mass of 9.0122.
