provide energy to the cells
The Ten Percent Law refers to the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another.
You use chemical energy in almost every part of your daily life. Your body is the perfect example. The food you eat has chemical energy stored in the bonds of the compounds that make it up and digestion breaks those bonds down, releasing that energy. Another example might be driving your car to work; the chemical reaction of burning fuel releases the energy stored in the bonds of gasoline compounds. Anytime you are changing the chemical makeup of something, you have the potential to use chemical energy stored in the chemical bonds.
No, due to the fact machines loose energy due to heat/thermal energy. you will always loose some amount of energy.

Carbohydrates..they provide energy
Carbohydrates
Carbhydrates
In the US, 19 percent of electricity. World-wide about 16 percent
combination reactions
Carbohydrates
A substance that produces useful energy when it undergoes a chemical or nuclear reaction. Fuel such as coal, wood, oil, or gas provides energy when burned. Compounds in the body such as glucose are broken down into simpler compounds to provide energy for metabolic processes. Some radioactive substances, such as plutonium and tritium, provide energy by undergoing nuclear fission or fusion.
In the US, about 19 percent of total electricity
Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons. As gas is burned, the compounds are broken down into simplier compounds and the breaking of these compounds releases energy.
Foods are the edible items you eat and drink in your diet. They provide energy and just as importantly the metabolic compounds to build and maintain the cells of the body.
Potential energy is stored energy. The potential energy stored in chemical compounds is Chemical Energy. Chemical energy is energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules.
