Explain Simply
Energy moves between stores and pathways, even though it cannot be created or destroyed.
Worked Examples
Start by naming the initial store, then explain the transfer pathway and the final useful output.
Common Mistakes
Mixing up transfer pathways with stores is one of the most common mark-dropping errors.
Exam Technique
In efficiency questions, keep the calculation tidy and always include the final unit or percentage.
