  1. Amino acids

  2. Fats

  3. Monosaccharides

  4. Starch

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The excess carbohydrates and proteins are stored in the body as fats. It gets converted into energy during excessive physical work. Essential fatty acids are those fatty acids which play an important role in the biological process and they can be metabolized easily. These acts as a fuel rather getting deposited as fat in the body. The human body cannot synthesize essential fatty acids. Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature as they have double bonds. The essential fatty acids are unsaturated as they have double bonds. Saturated fatty acids have the single bond and are solid at room temperature.

So, the correct answer is option B.

  1. Acetoacetic acid

  2. Acetone

  3. Succinic acid

  4. Betahydroxy butyric acid

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

In human and most other mammals, acetyl Co-A formed in the liver during oxidation of fatty acids can enter the citric acid cycle or can be converted to the "Ketone bodies" (e.g., Acetone, Acetoacetate and D - $\beta $ hydroxy butyrate) for export to other tissue.

Fats serve as the best storage of spare energy becuase

biology food for health fats fats and their test different nutrients in food

  1. Fats yield double amount of energy yielded by glucose on oxidative breakdown

  2. Fats can be stored in an almost pure unhydrated form

  3. Fats accomodate in lesser space

  4. All the above

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Fat is an essential part of our diet and is important for good health.

fat is the major storage form of energy in the body. These are found in plant foods and fish. Fats help in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. 

So, the correct option is ‘Fats yield the double amount of energy yielded by glucose on oxidative breakdown’.
