When you exercise, your muscles are using ATP to do the movements. Thus, the cell is doing cellular respiration in order to replace the ATP it has used. A) Draw a series of diagrams showing the energy transfers that occur during exercise (include: ATP, muscle, heat, cell respiration, glucose). B) When we exercise, we produce a lot of heat, to cool us down, our body produces sweat. According to the laws of thermodynamics, where is the heat coming from? C) When we exercise to lose weight, where is that mass going (do we sweat it out, it turns into heat, becomes digestive waste, how do we eliminate it?)?

why is ATP an effective energy storage molecule?
Your body stores energy in the form of fat and other organic molecules. When your body needs extra energy, it breaks apart the molecules of fat to release that energy (sometimes called "burning fat"). That energy is used to power cellular reactions or is lost as heat. The total amount of energy used by your body or lost as heat equals the amount of energy the molecules of fat originally stored before breaking apart. This process is an example of the _________law of thermodynamics. A. first B. second
How do we get energy from the food we eat? Is this an exergonic or endergonic process? Why? How do the first and second laws of thermodynamics play a role in this process? Why is it important to have energy transferred from the food you eat to ATP?
