The organic macromolecule used for the long term energy storage in animals is triglyceride.
What type of organic compound provides the best energy storage?
Carbohydrates function in short-term energy storage (such as sugar) and as intermediate-term energy storage (starch for plants and glycogen for animals). Fats and oils function in long-term energy storage. Fats yield 9.3 Kcal/gm, while carbohydrates yield 3.79 Kcal/gm. Fats thus store six times as much energy as glycogen.
