Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -ATP is the main source of energy for most cellular processes. The building blocks of ATP are carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, and phosphorus. Because of the presence of unstable, high-energy bonds in ATP, it is readily hydrolyzed in reactions to release a large amount of energy.
Detailed explanation-2: -Macromolecules : Example Question #4 There are four classes of biological molecules: fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids. Of these, fats produce the most energy per gram at a whopping nine calories per gram.
Detailed explanation-3: -So, the correct answer is Lipids.
