When Anna eats an apple, the sugars in that apple are broken down into the substance called glucose. Glucose is then burned in her body for energy. One of the body parts that need this energy is the heart, which beats due to electrical impulses. A byproduct of this glucose breakdown is the heat that warms her body and is later released.
Which identifies the energy transformations that take place in Anna’s body as this process takes place?

Mechanical energy is converted to kinetic energy, which is then converted to potential energy.
Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy and electrical energy.
Electrical energy is converted to chemical energy and thermal energy.
Mechanical energy is converted to potential energy which is then converted to kinetic energy.

Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy and electrical energy.

Explanation:

  • The energy is initially found in the glucose molecular bonds, within the sugars that Anna consumes, & this energy is in the  chemical energy form / Some of this energy is transformed into the electrical energy which makes the heart beat, & this energy is in the electrical energy form. The majority of the energy is transformed into heat for the body, and this energy is in the thermal energy form.
  • Cells require a steady supply of energy to remain alive. Animal cells get food energy, whereas plant cells receive sunlight energy. Chemical energy is used by all cells. It is the energy contained in any molecule's bonds between atoms. Cells should release the chemical energy in the bonds to remain alive.
  • Glucose is broken into "smaller molecules". The process In the smaller molecules, further chemical bonds are broken within the mitochondria. Oxygen is required for this process. The energy products are released and the production of water and carbon dioxide takes place
