A
fiber
B
starch
C
sugar
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Most of the carbohydrate, though, is in the form of starch, long chains of linked glucose molecules that are a storage form of fuel.

Detailed explanation-2: -A carbohydrate made of multiple units of glucose attached together in a form the body can digest. Also known as complex carbohydrate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Starch. Starch is a complex carbohydrate that is made by plants to store energy. For example, the potatoes pictured below are packed full of starches that consist mainly of repeating units of glucose and other simple sugars.

Detailed explanation-4: -At their most basic, carbohydrates are made of building blocks of sugars, and can be classified according to how many sugar units are combined in their molecule. Glucose, fructose and galactose are examples of single-unit sugars, also known as monosaccharides.

Detailed explanation-5: -The majority of carbohydrates should come from complex carbohydrates (starches) and naturally occurring sugars, rather than processed or refined sugars, which do not have the vitamins, minerals, and fiber found in complex carbohydrates.
