Which biomolecule is your main source of quick energy?
A
Nucleic Acid
B
Protein
C

D
Carbohydrate
Explanation: 

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).

Detailed explanation-2: -Likewise, carbohydrates, which are made up primarily of molecules containing atoms of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, are essential energy sources and structural components of all life, and they are among the most abundant biomolecules on Earth.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Your body breaks down carbohydrates into glucose. 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.
