Detailed explanation-2: -Carbohydrates are the body’s main source of quick energy because very little energy is required to break them down. There are three classes of carbohydrates: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.

Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation: 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. Carbohydrates and proteins produce less than half of this, at only four calories per gram.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbohydrates They provide the energy required to do work. Scientifically, it’s a polyhydroxy aldehyde or polyhydroxy ketone. Carbohydrates are the most abundant biomolecules on earth.
