(2) It could be used to generate movement, allowing you to climb a mountain or do other activities. 
(3) It could be transformed into heat and released from your body. 

The calories from digested food are used as energy to perform normal bodily functions from the normal metabolism to strenuous exercise. The calories from digested food, especially when not used, are stored in the body as glycogen (chains of glucose molecules found in the liver and muscle tissue) or as fat (in the adipose tissue). In the moment of starvation, the body will tap into these stored supplies. In the event of a chilly weather, the body goes into a state of thermogenesis where calories are transformed to heat energy.
