Answer:

Chemical energy → mechanical energy(potential to kinetic) → heat energy

Step-by-step explanation:

When we eat, the food is our souce of energy. This will be stored in our bodies in the form of chemical energy. When we need a burst of it for movement, the chemical energy will be converted into mechanical energy that helps us move. As Mike continues to run, this inetic energy will be changed or converted into heat energy, which we release.
