Detailed explanation-1: -Carbohydrates: a molecule that is used by many plants and animals to store energy for a short time.
Detailed explanation-2: -Most of the ATP in cells is produced by the enzyme ATP synthase, which converts ADP and phosphate to ATP. ATP synthase is located in the membrane of cellular structures called mitochondria; in plant cells, the enzyme also is found in chloroplasts.
Detailed explanation-3: -This stored form of glucose is made up of many connected glucose molecules and is called glycogen. When the body needs a quick boost of energy or when the body isn’t getting glucose from food, glycogen is broken down to release glucose into the bloodstream to be used as fuel for the cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -Carbohydrates provide a quick source of energy, while lipids provide long-term energy storage.
