Yes, protein can be considered a form of chemical energy because it contains stored energy in its molecular bonds. When broken down during digestion, proteins release amino acids, which can be used for energy production. However, carbohydrates and fats are more efficient energy sources. Proteins primarily build and repair tissues, but in emergencies (like starvation), the body converts them to energy. So, while not their main role, proteins do provide chemical energy.
