In which of the following scenarios is chemical energy transformed into thermal energy? A squirrel uses the energy in seeds to build structures in its body. A tree captures sunlight to produce the sugars it uses for food. A fish is able to swim using the energy it gets from eating plants. A lion's temperature increases as it uses the energy it gets from its prey.
During energy transformations, the majority of energy is converted to a. chemical bonds. b. heat. c. ATP. d. glucose molecules
