Explanation:

Electrical energy - The communication of neurons with each other takes place at synapses. Synapses are of two types i.e. chemical and electrical. A signal transduction process by a neuron uses electrical energy.  In electrical synapse, flow of ions between cells takes place.    

Gravitational potential energy  - It is the energy possessed by an object when it is placed at some height. It is given by :

PE = mgh

The energy used when "a ball is at the top of a hill" is gravitational potential energy.

Mechanical energy - It is the total energy i.e. it is the combination of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.

The flexing of an arm muscle  is an example of mechanical energy.

Naily [24]
The answer is upside-down. Mud cracks spread downward keen on soft sediment. When more sediment is eroded in, this second layer will seal the cracks underneath. Later, after the layers have toughened, the rock may be rotated upside-down and then the layers cracked. If you see edges in a mud-crack pattern, you are seeing at the side of the second layer that initially was down. You can tell that this shows edges, and not holes, through the shadow, the edges have a well-lit on one side and a shadow on the other, while holes have light and shadow on the similar side.
