Question

question 1-6 what would the human body not have the ability to do if carbohydrates were totally absent? the ability to build the inner components of cell membranes the ability to pass genetic information from parent to offspring the ability to create quick energy and serve as the primary energy source for the body the ability to repair and build cells as well as create both enzymes and neurotransmitters

Explanation:

1. Analyze each option:

• Building cell membrane inner components: This is related to lipids (like phospholipids) and proteins, not carbohydrates.
• Passing genetic information: This is the role of nucleic acids (DNA/RNA), not carbohydrates.
• Creating quick energy (primary energy source): Carbohydrates (e.g., glucose) are the body's primary energy source for quick energy. Without them, this ability is lost.
• Repairing/building cells, making enzymes/neurotransmitters: This is the role of proteins, not carbohydrates.

1. Conclusion: The function lost without carbohydrates is being the primary quick energy source.

Answer:

the ability to create quick energy and serve as the primary energy source for the body
