I WONDER - What Is Chemical Energy?

Chemical energy is stored in the bonds between atoms and molecules. A chocolate chip cookie serves as an example of an energy storage unit, containing sugars, fats, and proteins with chemical bonds. When consumed, the body's digestive and metabolic processes break these bonds to release energy, which is then used to power physical activities and brain functions.

Explain the process of how energy is utilized after eating.

In what ways does the energy released from food impact the body?
