Question
Chapter 2, Problem 14SAE
Summary Introduction
To review:
The kind of energy involved in chewing food, sending a nerve impulse, bending the fingers to make a fist, and breaking the bonds of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to energize muscle cells while making a fist.
Introduction:
The ability to perform or conduct any kind of work is known as energy. It has no mass and occupies no space in the universe. Energy is always associated with matter. Energy may be converted into various forms, but the parent energies are potential and kinetic energies.

Consider a 96 kg adult, who is overweight.
Weight loss would improve their general health and wellbeing.
If 35 % of the body mass of this 96 kg adult consists of TGs (in adipose tissue), what is the total available fuel reserve, in kJ and kcal, in the form of TGs?
Assume energy value of TGs = 37.4 kJ/g
1 kJ = 0.239 kcal
