    Option B, chemical energy to thermal energy

    Explanation:

    All living organism feed on food that contains energy in the form of chemical energy. Once the food is intake and processed for fulfilling energy requirement of all metabolic processes with in a cell, the remaining energy is released as heat (thermal energy). Thus, an amoeba while consuming a sugar molecule converts chemical energy with in the sugar to thermal energy in the form of energy molecules.

    Hence, option B is correct
