Functional Energy: Fatty Acids (Fats) vs. Amino Acids (Proteins) Fats‚ proteins‚ and carbohydrates are sources of energy for the body. Although carbohydrates are the largest source of energy‚ fats and proteins‚ however are just important‚ they contain essential amino chains not found in carbohydrates and are critical to Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) manufacturing on a cellular level. ATP takes the chemical energy from the food to the mitochondria to transform it into energy for the cells. (Dictionary

Renewable energy is energy that comes from resources which are continually replenished such as sunlight‚ wind‚ rain‚ tides‚ waves and geothermal heat. About 16% of global final energy consumption comes from renewable resources‚ with 10% of all energy from traditional biomass‚ mainly used for heating‚ and 3.4% from hydroelectricity. New renewables (small hydro‚ modern biomass‚ wind‚ solar‚ geothermal‚ and biofuels) accounted for another 3% and are growing very rapidly.[1] The share of renewables in

Each trophic level shows how energy and biomass flow through a food chain however it is eventually lost as heat. These levels consist of: biomass of producers‚ those consumed‚ and those not consumed. The first trophic level has the producers which graze the food chain‚ grazers consist of the

Renewable Energy Renewable resources consist of any natural resource that can be replenished naturally. Meanwhile‚ petroleum takes millions of years to form and it difficult and expensive to extract. In 2012 the U.S. released 5‚290 million metric tons of carbon dioxide into our environment‚ hurting animals and the environment. And yet our country cannot see that petroleum is not the answer to how our country should run. America should run on renewable resources instead of petroleum. More money should
