Competency #2
Answer and Explanation
As Speedy eats the sandwich, his body uses the chemical energy in the sandwich to fuel many chemical reactions. Eventually this chemical energy is transformed to electrical energy in the form of electrical impulses. These electrical impulses cause the muscles to contract, and the electrical energy is transformed to kinetic energy as the bike is propelled forward when speedy pedals. Go Speedy!
