BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Carbohydrates supply the body’s primary fuel or energy source, glucose. Think of glucose like the gas we put in our cars-it’s what our bodies prefer to use for fuel! The two basic types of “carbs” are sugar and starches.

Detailed explanation-2: -Actually, dietary fat is vital for your long-term survival! But dietary fat is not broken down into glucose like carbohydrates (and sometimes protein). Instead, it’s broken down into fatty acids. Without those fatty acids from your diet, your body would eventually fail to function.

Detailed explanation-3: -Any excess glucose ends up being stored as glycogen in the muscles, and it can also be stored as lipid in the fat tissue.

Detailed explanation-4: -The human body breaks down consumed carbohydrates into a type of sugar called glucose, which is the main source of fuel for cells. Unneeded glucose is packaged and stored as glycogen in liver and skeletal muscle cells, where it can be extracted and quickly used for sudden energy needs or to maintain blood sugar levels.
