What else can I help you with?
Are carbohydrates structurally more complex than fats and proteins?
yes they are
Are monosaccharides proteins carbohydrates or lipids?
Monosaccharides are carbohydrates, not proteins or lipids. They are the simplest form of carbohydrates and serve as the building blocks for more complex carbohydrates like disaccharides and polysaccharides.
Which is more easily digested and absorbed carbohydrates or protein?
Carbohydrates are generally more easily digested and absorbed than proteins. Simple carbohydrates, like sugars, can be broken down quickly by enzymes and absorbed rapidly into the bloodstream. In contrast, proteins require a more complex digestion process involving multiple enzymes to break them down into amino acids before absorption occurs. This makes carbohydrates a quicker source of energy compared to proteins.
Foods that contain more nutrients than do simple carbohydrates?
complex carbohydrates
What foods are macromolecules?
"Biomolecules" is not a recognized term in biochemistry, rather a term such as organic molecules or macromolecules would be more appropriate. The simple answer is all foods have complex organic macromolecules such as lipids (fat), carbohydrates/sugars and protein in varying quantities and types.
What maintains complex proteins?
The even more complex biochemical machinery of the Cell, which is responsible for the manufacture, maintenance and removal of [spent] complex proteins.
What are the three sources of energy in the body?
The three sources are carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. There are more like vitamins, minerals, and water.
Why is more energy required for the body to process complex carbohydrates than simple carbohydrates?
Complex carbohydrates contain longer chains of sugar molecules which require more time and energy for the body to break down into usable energy compared to simple carbohydrates, which are already in a more easily digestible form. The process of breaking down complex carbohydrates involves more enzymatic activity and takes longer, leading to a higher energy expenditure.
What contains most energy protein lipids or carbohydrates?
Fats (lipids) contain the most energy per gram compared to proteins and carbohydrates. While proteins and carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, fats provide 9 calories per gram. So, gram for gram, fats contain more than twice the energy of proteins and carbohydrates.
Are fatty acids more efficient fuel molecules than proteins and carbohydrates?
Yes they are.
The human body gets more energy from proteins or carbohydrates?
carbs are ideal for energy
Do lipids contain more calories per gram than either carbohydrates or proteins?
Lipids contain 9 cal/gram while proteins and carbohydrates each contain 4 cal/gram.
