The student provided a correct list of forms of energy involved in chopping wood for a fire. They identified kinetic energy (movement of the ax), potential energy (when the ax is held aloft), sound energy (the noise produced when chopping), and heat energy (friction). All these forms of energy are relevant to the activity. Therefore, the responses indicating "Yes" are correct.
