One advantage of storing excess energy as triglycerides as compared to storing it as glycogen is that:a. Triglycerides are stored with water, creating the perfect environment for chemical reactions to release energy. b. One gram of triglycerides contains over twice the amount of energy as one gram of carbohydrate. c. One gram of triglycerides contains over twice the amount of energy as one gram of protein.

Answer: C.

Explanation

There are higher C-H bonds in lipids than in Carbohydrates.

These C-H bonds stored higher chemical potential energy effectively of thr amount (413 kj/mol.)

Carbohydrates has high C-O glycosidic bonds or linkages of ( 358 kj/mol) which stores low amount of energy compare to C-H bonds.

Futher more higher ATPS are produced during ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN REACTION per molecules of tryglycerides metabolize compare to molecules of glucose because the longer chains of lipids ensures that more C-H bonds broken down ,ans therefore more oxidation to supply protons for ATPS synthesis from.proton pumps.

Answer:

b. One gram of triglycerides contains over twice the amount of energy as one gram of carbohydrate

Explanation:

Triglycerides contain more carbon-hydrogen bonds than carbohydrate. One gram of fat, when oxidized, yields approximately twice as much energy as the same mass of carbohydrate.
