What is the primary process through which our cells obtain energy from food?

• Photosynthesis

• Fermentation

• Cellular respiration

• Glycolysis

Which molecule is often referred to as the 'powerhouse of the cell' where cellular respiration occurs?

• Nucleus

• Mitochondria

• Ribosome

• Chloroplast

What happens to excess glucose in the body when it is not immediately used for energy?

• It is excreted as waste

• It is converted into ATP

• It is stored as glycogen

• It is turned into carbon dioxide

How does understanding energy transfer help athletes in their performance?

• By allowing them to run faster without training

• By helping them optimize their performance and improve training regimens

• By enabling them to avoid injuries completely

• By making them immune to fatigue

What role does energy transfer play in environmental sustainability?

• It helps in the production of fossil fuels

• It is not related to environmental sustainability

• It encourages the use of renewable energy sources and reduces waste

• It increases the carbon footprint
