BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -The primary role of carbohydrates is to supply energy to all cells in the body. Many cells prefer glucose as a source of energy versus other compounds like fatty acids. Some cells, such as red blood cells, are only able to produce cellular energy from glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -The major function of carbohydrates is to provide energy. The body uses glucose to provide most of the energy for the human brain. About half of the energy used by muscles and other body tissues is provided from glucose and glycogen, a storage form of carbohydrate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The carbohydrate used to store energy in animal cells is: (d) glycogen. Glycogen is a polymer of glucose.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbohydrates (CARBS for short) are the main source of energy for your body. CARBS COME IN 3 FORMS: SUGAR CARBS (or simple carbs) give you quick-acting, short-term energy and can be found in fruits, white bread, cereal, juice and soft drinks.

Detailed explanation-5: -Carbohydrates are involved in the short-term storage of energy in the form of glycogen. The reason it is not as well suited to long term storage is that carbs are polar, hydrophilic molecules, containing several hydroxyl groups.
