Does carbohydrates provide twice as much energy as protein?
no
Are important energy-storing molecules in living organisms that store about twice as much energy as carbohydrates?
Lipids
How much energy do lipids store as compared to carbohydrates?
lipids contain much more energy then carbohydrates. One gram of lipids create an average of 423 ATP or 0.47 mol ATP/gram. Glucose, with a molecular weight of 180.16, generates only 36 ATP, or 0.20 mol ATP/gram
What are important energy-storing molecules in living organisms that store about twice as much energy as carbohydrates?
Its lipids for Plato its D
Do fats contain large amounts of energy per gram?
Fats provide a form of store energy. Fats can provide more than half the energy that the body needs and twice as much as than carbohydrates
What type of organic molecule should a person limit to lose weight?
carbohydrates because they store twice as much energy/gram. if they are not used, they will cause weight gain.
What release twice as much energy in your body as do carbohydrates?
fat. that is why fat people are so athletic, and smarter than everyone else. they store all that energy in their body and that is why they are power athletes. cuz they release all that double energy and boom its on!
Do carbohydrates give you lots of energy?
Yes it gives you energy but not too much
Provide over twice as much energy per gram as carbohydrates and proteins?
Well, 1g of carbs or proteins provides 4 calories of energy. The only other source of energy are alcohol and fat. Alcohol provides 7 calories of energy per gram and fat provides 9 calories of energy per gram. So if you want over twice the amount, then the only option is fat.
How much energy provided in gram of carbohydrates?
There are approximatley 4Kcal (calories) of energy per gram of carbohydrates.. This is the same in proteins, but 9Kcal of energy are produced in a gram of fat Hope that answers your question :)
What does fat provid?
The main function of fats in the body is to provide energy: By supplying energy, fats save proteins from being used for energy and allow them to perform their more important role of building and repairing tissues. Fats on oxidation provide almost twice as much energy as that given by carbohydrates.
What is carbohydrates good for in the body?
Yes. Carbohydrates give you energy. But if you eat a lot of carbohydrates and dont work out, this energy will be turned into fat. Fat isn't bad for humans either, because it works as an energy store for later, but too much fat is not healthy.
