The correct response is:
The fuel molecule releases energy when chemically broken apart.
In the case of glucose, when it is metabolized in the body, the chemical bonds in the glucose molecule are broken during cellular respiration. This process releases energy that the body can use to perform work, such as muscle contraction, cellular repair, and maintaining homeostasis.
