What else can I help you with?
Describe how molecules such as carbohydrates and lipids are important in homeostasis?
carbohydrates are a key source of energy while lipids are non polar or mostly insolube in water so both of them play an important goal in homeostasis
What type of molecule is our bodies primary energy source?
macronutrients like carbohydrates lipids and protiens micronuitrients are vitamins and minerals
Is lipids a organic molecule?
carbohydrates and proteins.
What releases twice as much energy than carbohydrates?
Gram for gram, lipids release twice as much energy as carbohydrates do.
How are carbohydrates and lipids?
They both contain energy.
How are lipids like carbohydrates?
lipids contain energy just like carbohydrates,but lipids contain more energy Source: North Shore Community College Student Carbohydrates do contain energy but only for short periods of time, where as Lipids can contain energy for long periods of time even if this means that they are under-water.
Which of these molecule groups is involved in long-term energy storage?
Lipids, such as triglycerides, are the molecule group involved in long-term energy storage. They are stored in adipose tissue throughout the body for later use as energy when needed.
What prohibits lipids from being a readily available energy source?
Lipids are not as readily available as carbohydrates for energy because they require more processing to be broken down into usable energy compared to carbohydrates. Additionally, the conversion of lipids to energy is slower and requires more oxygen than the breakdown of carbohydrates.
What can an organism use for energy after carbohydrates?
when an organism uses most of it's carbohydrates, it can get energy from these lipids
Carbohydrates are chains of what smaller organic molecule?
Carbohydrates are chains of smaller organic molecules called monosaccharides.
What are two nutrients store energy?
Carbohydrates and Lipids!
What can both carbohydrates and lipids provide for the body?
energy
