What is Law of energy conservation ?

Law of energy conservation states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed and can only transform from one form to other form.

From Law of energy conservation we can say that Digestion starts from that very point when we put food in our mouth so the moment you eat the sandwich, it starts getting digested and when it reaches the stomach ,your body converts its chemical energy into the movement of your muscles.

hence , correct option is :

D. Chemical energy stored in the bonds of the molecules of the sandwich is transformed into kinetic energy.
