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


Tell about nutrients and how they are related to your body?

Protein is necessary to build muscles, cartilage and also enzymes. Carbohydrates provide quick fuel your body needs to function. Fats are a storage of energy. Protein, fats, and carbohydrates all can be used by the body as a fuel but fats provide twice as much energy by weight. Vitamins work with enzymes to perform important metabolic functions. Minerals are important as electrolytes, Iron is necessary in the blood cell's hemoglobin and Calcium is necessary for bone density and strength.


What contains twice the energy of carbohydrates?
