What's the difference between energy and protein?

Energy


Definition:

  • (n.) Internal or inherent power; capacity of acting, operating, or producing an effect, whether exerted or not; as, men possessing energies may suffer them to lie inactive.
  • (n.) Power efficiently and forcibly exerted; vigorous or effectual operation; as, the energy of a magistrate.

  • (n.) Capacity for performing work.

Protein


Definition:

  • (n.) A body now known as alkali albumin, but originally considered to be the basis of all albuminous substances, whence its name.

Example Sentences:
