Detailed explanation-1: -Glucose, a 6-carbon sugar, is a simple carbohydrate or “mono-saccharide.” Sugar is a source of quick energy for the body because it is easily metabolized (broken down). Larger, more “complex carbohydrates” are made by stringing together chains of glucose subunits into di-saccharides, tri-saccharides, poly-saccharides.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose, or blood sugar, is the main source of energy for your body’s cells, tissues, and organs. Glucose can be used immediately or stored in the liver and muscles for later use.

Detailed explanation-3: -The primary source of energy for animals is carbohydrates, mainly glucose. Glucose is called the body’s fuel.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbohydrate compounds provide essential body fuel. Their structural forms include monosaccharides such as glucose, disaccharides such as lactose, and polysaccharides, including starches (polymers of glucose), glycogen (the storage form of glucose), and fiber. All body cells can use glucose for fuel.
