Question

which should a person eat if she wants the fastest supply of energy?
a. glucose
b. starch
c. lipid
d. disaccharide

Explanation:

Glucose is a monosaccharide, the simplest form of carbohydrate. It can be quickly absorbed into the bloodstream and used for energy without further digestion. Starch is a polysaccharide that needs to be broken - down into monosaccharides first. Lipids are a long - term energy storage molecule and take longer to metabolize for energy. Disaccharides need to be hydrolyzed into monosaccharides before being used for energy.

Answer:

A. Glucose
