Expert Solution
Step 1

The Energy system are the pathways for the generation of energy to perform different activities. This is accomplished by means of energy molecules called as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). These ATP molecules are produced by breakdown of various substrates like; carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Based on the intensity and duration of activity, different energy system are used by human body to produce energy.
