____ are particularly important in the metabolism of sugars to provide energy.
A
Phosphoric Esters
B
Glucose
C
Glycosidic Bond
D
Polysaccharides
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Sugar phosphates are the esters of sugars and active intermediates in sugar metabolism. D-glucose-6-phosphate is an ester found in large amounts. Glycosides are the compounds in which a sugar molecule is linked to a non-sugar molecule (aglycone) such as alcohol or phenol.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose metabolism: fueling the brain The mammalian brain depends on glucose as its main source of energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -These are high-bonds that store from the metabolism of foods. of ATP releases as it is needed for biochemical processes (for instance, for muscle contraction). Phosphate esters are also important structural constituents of phospholipids and nucleic acids. .

Detailed explanation-4: -On the contrary, in plants, glucose is synthesized from carbon dioxide and water (photosynthesis) and stored as starch. At the cellular level, most often, glucose is the final substrate that enters the tissue cells and converts to ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
