<span>The right answer is: *some of the energy that had been stored as chemical energy is lost as heat.
Breaking down an organic molecule into smaller ones is part metabolism of all the living organisms. It is called catabolism.
Catabolism is the set of reactions of molecular degradation of the organism considered. It is the opposite of anabolism, all synthesis reactions. Catabolism and anabolism are the two components of metabolism.Catabolism reactions are oxidations (or dehydrogenations) and they are thermodynamically favorable, that is they are exergonic (yielding chemical energy, producing energy). A part of this energy is used for biological activities, like moving, building or binding molecules together. The other part is released as heat. (You can take an example in the real life like running, the energy lets you moving and produces by the way heat)</span>

Click on the picture to get full view. I wrote about chemical properties also so you can compare and contrast and it can help show the physical properties more :)
Answer:
overpopulation can occur when there are not enough preadators or the food web is out of balance, in some ecosystems overpopulation can really harm it as some organisms increase and decrease which can cause an extintion if it gets too out of hand.
Explanation: period.
