Abstract
Energy, as has been discussed in chapter 1, exists in a number of different forms. Movement is associated with whole molecules, single atoms and each electron. Here we are particularly concerned with the energy associated with the movement of electrons around the inner core of protons and neutrons of atoms. In this chapter the central part played by the energy of the electrons in the energy relationships within cells will be discussed.
