B

Keep in mind that total energy in the beginning and after work remains the same according o thermodynamics theory that energy can't be created or destroyed.

Explanation:

Conversion of energy from one form to another is not 100% efficient. Even the transfer of energy from one object to another (work) is not 100% efficient. This also applies to cells. The inefficiencies are lost as heat energy. Examples of such work in the cells include active transport by cell membrane protein channels, metabolic pathways, and etcetera. Some energy in the hydrolysis of ATP to power these biochemical activities is lost as heat which is part of the reason we remain warm. This energy ends up being lost into the environment as heat (e.g even from sweating).

Answer:
Yes Energy produced deep inside Earth heats rock in the mantle. ... As it becomes less dense, the heated rock rises toward Earth's surface. The cooler, denser rock surrounding the heated rock sinks, as Figure 5 shows. In this way, heat inside Earth moves toward the cooler crust.

Compare the Spring Equinox with the Winter Solstice. Justify your response in two or more complete sentences.
Trava [24]
The biggest difference between the equinox and the solstice is that a solstice is the point during the Earth's orbit around the sun at which the sun is at the greatest distance from the equator, while during an equinox, it's at the closest distance from the equator. Because of this, one solstice is an extremely long day, and the other is an extremely short day. Comparatively, during an equinox, the days and nights are equal lengths.
