If a person is looking for more energy, which nutrient should they increase in their diet?

• Protein

• Lipids

• Nucleic acids

• Carbohydrates

Plants capture some energy from the Sun and store it as glucose. When an organism breaks down that glucose, some of the energy is lost. Why?

• The energy is lost to waste

• The energy is released as heat

• The energy is stored for later

• The energy is turned back into light
