The carbohydrates produced by plants are an important source of energy for animals. When animals eat plants, energy stored in carbohydrates is released in the process of respiration, a chemical reaction between glucose and oxygen to produce energy (for cell work), carbon dioxide, and water.tarch is the usual form in which carbohydrates are stored as energy by plants. Plants can split starch into its simpler glucose units for use as energy when needed. Cellulose is known as a structural carbohydrate because of the fibers formed by its molecules.
the DARPA âcheetahâ is the worldâs fastest running robot, capable of moving at speeds up to 18mph engineers of DARPA (the US defense advanced research projects agency) have set a new land speed record for a legged robot with the âcheetahâ, capable of galloping at speeds of up to 18mph.
Given those titles, many consider her to be the fastest woman in the world. Fraser-Pryce's personal best time in the 100-meter dash was set in June 2012 in Kingston, Jamaica. She completed the race that day in a blistering 10.70 seconds. Given that time, however, Fraser-Pryce is not the fastest woman in history. American Carmelita Jeter, who finished second to Fraser-Pryce at the London Olympics, has a personal best time of 10.64 seconds in the 100-meter dash. While extremely fast, Jeter is also not the fastest woman in history. That title belongs to the one and only Florence Griffith-Joyner. Known as âFlo-Jo by her many fans, Griffith-Joyner still holds the all-time world record in the 100-meter dash at 10.49 seconds set in 1988.
