Vedclass · Accepted Answer

Fats

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Carbohydrates provide approximately $4 \ kcal/g$ of energy. Fats (lipids) are highly energy-dense molecules that provide approximately $9 \ kcal/g$ of energy. Since $9 \ kcal/g$ is more than double the energy provided by carbohydrates $(4 \ kcal/g 	imes 2 = 8 \ kcal/g)$,fats are the correct answer. Glycogen is a polysaccharide (carbohydrate) and provides energy similar to other carbohydrates.
