Biology

Hoochie [10]3 years ago
4 0

The sperm are changing chemical energy into kinetic energy.

Chemical energy is defined as the chemical substance’s potential to undergo a transformation through a chemical reaction. So, this type of energy can be transformed to other forms of energy by a chemical reaction.

Kinetic energy, on the other hand, is the energy that an object (structure) possesses due to its motion.

So, in the example above, chemical energy of the glucose is used (by breaking the bonds of this molecule through the chemical reaction) for the formation of sperm’s kinetic energy (necessary for movement).

Saliva contains an enzyme that breaks down _____.<br><br> sugar<br> starch<br> fat<br> protein
AlexFokin [52]
Saliva contains an enzyme that breaks down STARCH.
The digestion process usually starts in the mouth. The saliva contain an enzyme called ptyalin, which act on the starch in the eaten food and break it down to simple sugars. This enzyme is secreted by the salivary gland and it helps in the pre digestion of starches.
