water-soluble; fat-soluble
B
polyunsaturated; monounsaturated
C
complex, simple
D
monounsaturated; saturated
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Complex carbs pack in more nutrients than simple carbs. They’re higher in fiber and digest more slowly. This also makes them more filling, which means they’re a good option for weight control. They’re also ideal for people with type 2 diabetes because they help manage blood sugar spikes after meals.

Detailed explanation-2: -Complex carbohydrates are digested more slowly and supply a lower more steady release of glucose into the blood stream. As with simple sugars, some complex carbohydrate foods are better choices than others. Refined grains, such as white flour and white rice, have been processed, which removes many nutrients and fiber.

Detailed explanation-3: -Complex carbohydrate foods provide vitamins, minerals, and fiber that are important to the health of an individual.

Detailed explanation-4: -Complex carbohydrates are present in foods such as bread and pasta. Simple carbohydrates are in foods such as table sugar and syrups. Complex carbohydrates contain longer chains of sugar molecules than simple carbohydrates. The body converts these sugar molecules into glucose, which it uses for energy.
