I would need more specific statements to evaluate which three are true about Bonito's potential energy. However, I can provide some general information about potential energy that might be relevant to the scenario:

Bonito's potential energy in the starting blocks is a form of stored energy, which can be converted into kinetic energy once he starts running.

The amount of potential energy Bonito has while in the starting blocks depends on his mass and height, as well as any other factors that could contribute to stored energy in his muscles and position.

As Bonito begins to run, his potential energy will convert into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.

If you provide the specific statements, I can help you determine which three are true based on the scenario.
