Answer: A. Internal energy : May be viewed as the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of the molecules
B. Latent heat: The internal energy associated with the phase of a system.
C. Chemical (bond) energy : The internal energy associated with the atomic bonds in a molecule
D. Nuclear energy : The internal energy associated with the bonds within the nucleus of the atom itself
Explanation:
Internal energy is defined as the total energy of a closed system. Internal energy is the sum of potential energy of the system and the kinetic energy of the system. It is represented by symbol U.
Latent heat is the thermal energy released or absorbed by a thermodynamic system when the temperature of the system does not change. It is thus also called as hidden heat.
Chemical energy is the energy stored in the bonds of molecules.
Nuclear energy is the energy which is stored in the nucleus of an atom called as binding energy within protons and neutrons.
Answer : Option A) The body breaks down the molecules into molecules they need.
Explanation : Nutrient molecules are important because the body breaks the nutrient molecules and convert it into the absorb-able molecule that can generate energy for doing the activities of the body.
Nutrients are taken in the body in the form of carbohydrates which later on gets broken into glucose molecules and generates energy, proteins which is decomposed into amino acids, fats breaks down into fatty acids, minerals and salts are also nutrients which is essential nutrient for body.
