BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Carbohydrates can be used as an immediate source of energy by largely all cells, but in many photosynthetic organisms a major portion of the carbohydrates will be used for production of structural compounds, e.g., cellulose in cells walls, or for synthesis of storage products such as starch.

Detailed explanation-2: -When you eat carbs, your body breaks them down into simple sugars, which are absorbed into the bloodstream. As the sugar level rises in your body, the pancreas releases a hormone called insulin. Insulin is needed to move sugar from the blood into the cells, where the sugar can be used as a source of energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Carbs provide your body with energy Glucose in the blood is taken up into your body’s cells and used to produce a fuel molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through a series of complex processes known as cellular respiration. Cells can then use ATP to power a variety of metabolic tasks.

Detailed explanation-4: -Dietary carbohydrates provide glucose that body cells can use for energy. Excess glucose beyond what the body needs for immediate energy is converted into glycogen, a storage form of carbohydrate, or converted into fat and stored in body fat cells. Glucose provides energy for all body cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -There is a diversity of polysaccharides that make up the wall and that are classified as one of three types: cellulose, hemicellulose, or pectin. The pectins, which are most abundant in the plant primary cell walls and the middle lamellae, are a class of molecules defined by the presence of galacturonic acid.
